Best Crockpot Chocolate Frito Candy Recipes
CROCK-POT CHOCOLATE FRITO CANDY
Interesting candy recipe from A Year of Slow Cooking. Just think this uses LEFTOVER Fritos for a sweet instead of a savory entree. I once had chocolate covered potato chips and thought they were super so think this would be good too. (Big thinker here.) She claims that Fritos are gluten free-surprises me. I realize that you can buy gluten free pretzels. I am not labeling this gluten free unless someone with the knowledge informs me it is appropriate. If you want to try this in the microwave instead that is fine with me. I doubt that this recipe would work in a crock pot bigger than 4 quart-am suspicious that it would burn.

Steps:
- Put the Fritos and the pretzels in a large Ziploc and smash until crumby; set aside.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Put the butter, chocolate chips, peanut butter, and brown sugar, into your crockpot and set on high for 1-2 hours or until everything is really melty and you can mix it well. (Hers took 1 hour, 15 minutes to melt nicely in a 6 quart crock pot. Remember the size of crock pot determines the length of cooking time in crock pot cooking.).
- Stir in pretzels and Frito pieces.
- Using oven mits (use them! The crock is hot! Do not get burned.) dump the hot candy out onto your lined cookie sheet and spread out with a wooden spoon.
- Sprinkle the peanut pieces on top.
- Put the pan in the refrigerator for about an hour, or until candy has set completely.
- Break into pieces.
