Step 1

Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Melt chocolates together in the microwave, in 10-15 seconds (at the most) spurts and whisking it thoroughly until some pieces won't melt before microwaving it again. Stop when it's all mixed, don't overcook it because it goes from smooth to scorched in seconds. Or in a bowl over simmering water, being careful the chocolate doesn't touch the water.

Step 3

Add peanuts, salt, and mix very well, until it's all coated.

Step 4

Drop by tablespoons (or with a 1/8 measuring cup) onto prepared sheets.

Step 5

Let dry completely at room temperature, which will take about 15 minutes. Larger mounds will take longer.

Step 6

Keep at room temperature, in a cool place. I like to use metal tins, but they disappear fast.
