Ingredients
1½ cups creamy peanut butter
½ cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3½ cups powdered sugar (about 1 pound)
16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (15-ounce) bag mini pretzel twists
Instructions
Make the Peanut Butter Filling
In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until a thick, dough-like consistency forms.
Assemble the Pretzel Bites
Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture and roll it into a small ball.
Sandwich the peanut butter ball between two mini pretzels, gently pressing them together.
Repeat until all the filling is used.
Melt the Chocolate
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
Dip or Drizzle
Dip half of each pretzel sandwich into the melted chocolate, or drizzle chocolate over the top for a decorative look.
Set the Chocolate
Place the pretzel bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Let them set at room temperature or refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
Serve & Enjoy
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Tips
You can use dark or milk chocolate instead of semi-sweet.
Sprinkle sea salt on top for extra flavor.
Perfect for gifting or dessert trays!
