- 3 cups whole almonds
- 1 12 oz pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 oz semi-sweet baking chocolate broken up
- 8 oz dried cherries cut up if large
- 10 oz white candy coating -OR- almond bark
Place almonds in the bottom of a 3.5-4 quart slow cooker.
If using almond bark, cut it up in small chunks about 1-inch.
Layer the chocolate chips, baking chocolate, cherries and candy coating, having the candy coating on top.
Place a layer of paper towels on top of the crock and secure them with the lid.
Cook on low ONLY for 1-1.5 hours. Candy will still appear whole, but if you stir it like in the photo in the post, and everything blends well, it's ready.
Drop chocolate mixture into paper bonbon cups (about 1.5-inches diameter at bottom). I got 45 bonbon cups out of this recipe.
