They do look delicious and so pretty in the little red papers.
Sending very Merry Christmas wishes to you and thanking you for all of your wonderful posts and for being a SWEET blogging Friend!

Oh my goodness!
What a great looking bunch of crunchy snacks.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!!!!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe..just what I needed! Have a warm and wonderful Merry CHRISTmas! ;D
Sounds yummy! There haven’t been any chocolate chips in the grocery stores here for a couple of months. And I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to find almond bark. A friend gifted us with homemade toffee today so I am having that with some jasmine green tea. Delish! Happy holidays to you and yours, Tammy
Love your blog title! I, too, love to sing, and I have birds. So cute. Love the chocolate crockpot recipe.
How easy and delicious! I can think of some interesting variations already. Thanks for the recipe and have a very, Merry Christmas, Gnee!
So simple and I love that you used the Crock-Pot to melt your chocolate!
HI! These look delicious! Sending Christmas wishes to you and yours. Hope you have a wonderful holiday. We’re headed north and then south starting tomorrow. HUGS and Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I love peanut brittle and I love crock pots….so perfect combination!
What a clever idea! I agree, the sweet/salty combination just works doesn’t it? And to have it slowly melting while you are doing other things is pure genius! Have a wonderful family filled Christmas!
