Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup (250g) creamy peanut butter
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup (60g) confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
60 small pretzels (square or regular twists)
two 4 ounce semi-sweet chocolate bars, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside. Make sure you have enough room in your freezer for the baking sheet or use the refrigerator in step 3.
  • In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter and butter together with a spoon or use an electric mixer. Stir or beat in confectioners' sugar and brown sugar until a thick dough forms. Roll peanut butter dough into 30 small balls. If it seems really sticky and thin, add 1/4 cup (30g) confectioners' sugar.
  • Sandwich balls between two pretzels and place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze for 20-30 minutes or refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • While the pretzel bites are chilling, melt chopped chocolate in a double boiler or in 20 second increments in the microwave, stopping and stirring after each until smooth. Dip the pretzel bites halfway into the melted chocolate and place bite back on baking sheet. Refrigerate pretzel bites for at least 10-20 minutes to set the chocolate.
  • Cover and store pretzel bites for up to 10 days in the refrigerator. Bites can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality peanut butter. This will make a big difference in the taste of the candy.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the chocolate by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chocolate. If it gets too hot, it will seize and become grainy.
  • Work quickly when dipping the pretzels in the chocolate. The chocolate will start to harden quickly, so you don't want to take too long.
  • If you want to make the candy even more festive, you can sprinkle it with crushed peanuts, chopped pretzels, or holiday sprinkles.

Peanut butter chocolate pretzel candy is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a candy that is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give this recipe a try.
