peanut clusters

Chocolate-covered legume mounds

Peanut clusters are a candy made by coating groups of peanuts in chocolate or another confection, then letting them set into irregular mounds.

The clusters form when melted chocolate is mixed with peanuts and dropped by spoonfuls onto a surface to harden: She made peanut clusters for the bake sale.

The name extends to similar candies with other nuts or ingredients.
