- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 tbsp shortening
- 4 cups lightly salted peanuts

- Microwave Method: Microwave both types of chocolate, peanut butter and shortening until smooth. Do this by microwaving for 30 second intervals, stirring in-between until smooth.
- Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, stir the peanuts into the chocolate making sure to coat all peanuts evenly.
