PEANUT CLUSTERS


(not in the cookbook)


                                                                                (a little bigger than a quarter)


YOU WILL NEED:

Double boiler or two pans that can sit on top of one another
1 Lg. spoon
1 teaspoon
Parchment or wax paper


INGREDIENTS:

1 bag of chocolate chips
2 bags of butterscotch chips
1 jar of salted peanuts


1.  Pour all chips into top pan of double boiler, slowly heat about 2 inches of water in bottom pan.  Keep heat on medium. Stir chips until well blended.

2.  When chips are melted and blended well, add whole jar of peanuts, stir.

3.  Using a teaspoon make mounds (about the size of a quarter) on the parchment paper, which is laid out on your counter top or table.  Let cool, lift off and store in a well covered container.  These are delicious.  This recipe makes a lot of candy.  Enjoy!

If you leave the top pan on top of the bottom pan (after taking it off of the stove) the candy mixture stays warm so you can spoon it out easier.

SERVES:   1 - 20
