Editor's note: Use these Chocolate Covered Peanuts to make David Lebovitz's Tin Roof Ice Cream .

These easy-to-make peanuts will make you feel like a chocolatier assembling a world-class candy bar. If you're anything like me, you can't keep chocolate bars around the house without breaking off a hunk every time you pass by, so by all means double the recipe if you want, just to make sure there's enough for folding into the ice cream later on.

Storage

Chocolate-Covered Peanuts can be stored for several months in an airtight container, refrigerated or at room temperature.
