How to make these Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Peanut Clusters
Melt together 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips + 1 cup milk chocolate chips and ¼ cup peanut butter in the microwave for 1 minute, stir. Repeat 1 minute, stir until melted. It's ok to have some small lumps of chocolate chips in your chocolate, they'll still keep melting/tempering as you keep stirring the chocolate to get it smooth and creamy.
Add in the peanuts stir. Add in the marshmallows, stir.
Prepare wax or parchment-lined baking sheet(s).
Using a medium scoop (1.5 tablespoons) place scoops of chocolate mixture to make 30 clusters. Use a small scoop (1 tablespoon) onto the parchment or waxed paper. Let set to firm up or place in refrigerator and cool for 30 minutes or until firm. Store in an airtight container.
Let them set up and devour! You can make these smaller or larger depending on your preference. These make a large batch, so they are perfectly festive for your Christmas party trays or gifting in nice tins or decorated box.
So five minutes later and you are on your way to the best no-bake rocky road candy for a super easy snack that all the teenagers will love as well as the adults! YUM!

You can use which ever size you want. I was just giving you options, but I changed it to say 'or'. These are one of my faves! I hope you love them Janet!
Janet says
Want to try these!! I am confused about Step 6 - it says to use a medium scoop tp scoop the chocolate mixture onto baking sheet, then to use a small scoop on the parchment paper? Which size do we use, or are you supposed to use both? Thank you very much!!
Kim Lange says
Thank you so much! I had my own personal stash so I can definitely relate!!

Oh my goodness, this looks fantastic! I love some good candy clusters, especially those loaded with chocolate, nuts, and caramel - that's a basically a delicious yet simplified chocolate bar. It's actually a great idea to make Snickers, Mars, etc. clusters 🙂
Kim Lange says
Hi Noreen, yes, you can leave it out. If the chocolate is too thick after it's melted add a tablespoon or 2 of coconut, vegetable or canola oil to it help smooth it out. Enjoy!!! I can't stop eating it! 🙂
Noreen says
Hi Kim, can I omit peanut butter? Would it change the texture at all?
