Delicious & easy to make! I used milk chocolate chips because that's all I had on hand. Just poured it into a buttered 9x13 and after 2 hrs. in the fridge it was perfect... kids really loved it!

These were easy to make and they are tastey. I did not do mine in a pan, but made clusters of them on wax paper which turned out fine. By the way, mine look nothing like the picture that is with the recipe. They are "chunky" looking and you can see the marshmellows and peanuts. I have already put these in foil cups for gift giving. Thank you for sharing the recipe.

These just weren't what I thought they would be. I was trying to duplicate a chocolate cookie candy that I bought recently in a bake shop. The ones I tried had some crisp rice cereal in them as well so I cut down the nuts and marshmallows in this recipe and added 2 cups of cereal. However - the problem was the chocolate. It wasn't smooth and there wasn't enought to really cover the mixture. The peanuts didn't really want to get covered and stood out naked. I used about 1/4 milk chocolate chips and 3/4 cups semi-sweet. I dropped the clusters on waxed paper - worked ok. I was not satisfied.

I thought these were fantastic! I made these with milk chocolate though, not semi sweet and I think that made a big difference. I'm so glad I went with this recipe instead of making a fudge recipe from this site. These are like a peanut cluster fudge. I read one of the other reviewers comments that it did not "set" for her; but I had no such problem. After chilling for two hours they were delicious!! Creamy, Yummy! I did not use marshmallows, I just added a 16oz can of Walgreens lightly salted peanuts; I thought the sweet/salty combo would be good and it is! Just the perfect taste. Thanks for a great recipe...super easy and super delicious. It's killing me not to eat them all and save some for Christmas cookie trays!!

Super easy in the microwave (under 3 minutes)and yummy for everyone. I made it in a microwavable bowl, combined all ingredients except the peanuts. Microwaved the contents until the chocolate was melted. Added the peanuts, stirred and placed in a greased pan. 2 hours in the fridge... Thank you, my daycare kids love them...

I thought the clusters were great! Very sweet though; we were only able to eat a very small piece @ a time.

This came out with what seems like a LOT of marshmallows, and my bag was smaller than the one in the recipe. It looks like they will mostly be chocolate covered marshmallows. That isn't necessarily a bad thing! ;>) I forgot to buy peanuts but I had a bag of walnuts wanting to be used so I used them and decided to give the milk chocolate/peanut butter swirl chips a try. If the fact that I wanted to shove my face in the bowl is any indication, I think the combo will be really good. I did use the fat free milk...whatever I can do to make myself feel better about these! :>)

Yummy. The first time I made exactly as written. Tasted good, but not pretty. The second time, because of some of the other reviews, I used less marshmallows and milk chocolate and it was soooo much better.

I made the Ga Ga Clusters over Christmas. My whole family loved them! I followed the recipe exactly but used less peanuts (1 1/2 cups instead of 2). I'm glad I chose to reduce because I think 2 cups would have been a little too much for my taste. I also suggest making sure the chocolate mixture is fairly warm, but not hot, when you pour it over the marshmallows. They need to melt a bit to bond the ingredients together. All in all, a very tasty treat. Thanks for sharing, Saundra!

It may not be fair to rate this only 3, I wish I could do a 3 1/2...I think if I made this again, I would do a better job...maybe 1/2 semisweet and 1/2 milk chocolate chips, I guess that would work. I made 'drop' candies with this also, it did make a lot. I had a problem with my marshmallows melting and swirling into the chocolate, I guess I just got it too hot. I would try them again, but probably not until next Christmas.

These were yummy. I may cut back a little on the marshmallows next time for personal tastes, but the recipe is superb!

Excellent! I am so glad I found this candy recipe. Here's an important tip I found while making this: Don't melt your chocolate too hot, because you don't want to pour really hot chocolate over the marshmallows. It will make it too runny. Make sure the chocolate is just a little warm before you pour. It helps it to stay nice and firm. Not gooey. Thanks so much for the recipe, it's the best!
