Good heavens!  Made this tonight for our Christmas Goody plates for the neighbors.  SOOOO good!  The white chocolate and peanut butter chips are a lovely twist on an old favorite.  Make some, you will LOVE it!
1 - 16 oz jar unsalted peanuts
1 - 16 oz. jar salted peanuts
1 - 12 oz bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 - 12 oz bag milk chocolate chips
2 - 10 oz bag peanut butter chips
2 - 1 lb pkg white almond bark or vanilla candy coating
Layer all ingredients in a large crockpot (starting with peanuts). Turn the pot on low, cover with lid, and leave sitting for 90 minutes. Then, remove lid and stir to combine. Replace lid and leave sitting for another 30 minutes. Stir again and then spoon mixture on to wax paper or non-stick aluminum foil. Allow to harden for at least 1 hour.
