| Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites |
When I saw this recipe, I knew I had to try it. Sweet creamy peanut butter sandwiched between a salty pretzel, and then dipped in chocolate? I am so all over that. This is a super easy thing to make, requires little in the baking skills department, and is dangerously delicious.
I’m thinking I’ll have to make these for my Memorial Day Weekend camping trip. 🙂
Originally from Sweet Pea’s Kitchen
Ingredients:
■1 cup creamy peanut butter
■2 tablespoons softened butter
■1/2 cup powdered sugar
■3/4 cup brown sugar
■Pretzels
■1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat peanut butter and butter until combined. Scrape down bowl, add sugars and beat until combined. You should be able to roll the mixture into balls without sticking to your hands. If needed, add more powdered sugar until you reach a consistency that is easy to roll.
Roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 teaspoon of mixture for each ball, and place on prepared baking sheet. Sandwich the balls between two pretzels and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl over a pan of lightly simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, and remove from heat. Dip each pretzel bite halfway into the melted chocolate and place on the prepared baking sheet. Chill in refrigerator until chocolate is set.

Thanks, what a great treat!
Hope you enjoy them as much as we did! 🙂
Oh yum! I am a huge fan of anything that involves both chocolate and peanut butter!
Jenn: Me too! Have you ever had a Take 5 bar? They pretty much taste just like that!
We made these for Christmas-they were a huge hit & passed the "Daddy-test." 🙂
I just pinned this – OMG!!!!!
My daughter and I made these for Christmas treats. We dipped them some in chocolate bark and some in almond bark…mmmmmmmmmm!!!
Sounds like a yummy combination! Thanks for visiting!
Do you use regular full size pretzels or the mini ones?
I used the smaller of the two sizes. You could use any size though.
Going to make
How do you store these once they are made? I made them for Christmas but that’s a couple weeks away now.
Refrigerate in an airtight container and they should last a long while. Thanks for visiting!
