  2. Add the chocolate chips and vegetable oil to a large heat-safe mixing bowl.
  3. Heat the chocolate chips and oil in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

  5. Stir in the miniature marshmallows and peanuts until they are completely coated.

Notes

For best results, use parchment paper or wax paper when spooning out the clusters. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or in the freezer for up to two months.
