Instructions
1. Prepare the Baking Sheet
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
2. Make the Peanut Butter Filling
- In a bowl, mix peanut butter and butter until smooth.
- Scrape down the bowl, then add powdered sugar and brown sugar. Mix until fully combined.
- The mixture should be rollable without sticking to your hands. If needed, add more powdered sugar.
3. Assemble the Pretzel Sandwiches
- Roll the peanut butter mixture into small balls.
- Place a ball between two pretzels, gently pressing down to sandwich them.
- Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes.
4. Melt the Chocolate
- In a double boiler, melt the chocolate almond bark, stirring occasionally until smooth.
5. Dip the Pretzels in Chocolate
- Remove pretzel bites from the freezer.
- Dip half of each pretzel sandwich into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
- Place back on the wax paper-lined baking sheet.
6. Set & Store
- Let the chocolate set at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
Notes
- For extra crunch, sprinkle with crushed peanuts or sea salt before the chocolate sets.
- Use dark chocolate or white chocolate for variety.
- Freezing Tip: If frozen, some chocolate may develop a white condensation mark, but this won’t affect the taste.
