Oh yes 😍 — Clodhopper Candy is amazing — crunchy, sweet, salty, and totally addictive! It’s a no-bake treat made with graham crackers, chocolate, and peanut butter — kind of like a crunchy peanut butter cluster. Originally a Canadian favorite, it’s super easy to make at home.
Here’s how to make your own Amazing Clodhopper Candy 👇
🍫 Clodhopper Candy (Amazing No-Bake Clusters)
Ingredients
(Makes about 5 cups of candy)
-
2 cups coarsely crushed graham crackers (about 12 full sheets)
-
1½ cups peanuts (salted or unsalted — your choice)
-
2 cups milk chocolate chips (or semi-sweet for a richer flavor)
-
¾ cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy both work great)
-
Optional: a pinch of sea salt or drizzle of white chocolate for garnish
🧑🍳 Instructions
-
Prep your mix-ins:
Place crushed graham crackers and peanuts in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine. -
Melt chocolate and peanut butter:
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips and peanut butter together in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until melted and smooth (about 1–2 minutes total).
Alternatively: melt in a double boiler over low heat. -
Combine:
Pour the melted mixture over the graham cracker and peanut mixture. Stir gently until everything is evenly coated. -
Form the candy:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the sheet (or spread it evenly into a slab if you prefer bark-style). -
Set:
Refrigerate for about 30–45 minutes, until firm. -
Serve:
Break into chunks or cut into squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week — or in the fridge for longer shelf life.
🍯 Flavor Variations
-
White Chocolate Clodhoppers: Use white chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate.
-
Pretzel Crunch: Replace half the peanuts with crushed pretzels.
-
Butterscotch Version: Mix 1 cup butterscotch chips + 1 cup chocolate chips.
-
Holiday Twist: Add red & green M&Ms or drizzle with white chocolate for Christmas treats!
