I have made each of these many times for different occasions. They are very
good. The key to doing the peanuts and raisins is to make sure that you
have the chocolate mixture that is about 3 parts peanuts or raisins to one
part chocolate. It should be thick enough for the raisins and peanuts to
form clusters when dropped into the candy cups. Enjoy:-)

In a saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate bar and disks. Set saucepan in
hot water to maintain dipping consistency. Dip several peanuts at a time in
chocolate. Place in paper candy cup. Repeat with remaining chocolate and
peanuts. Refrigerate until chocolate sets, about 10 minutes. Store covered
in refrigerator.
