Peanut Butter Chocolate Pretzel Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Stir powdered sugar and peanut butter together until combined. This will take some time and a little elbow grease but it will come together eventually.
• Melt the chocolate chips. I put mine in a glass Pyrex measuring cup and microwave for 1 minute, stir, and microwave 30 seconds more.
• Sandwich about 1t. of the peanut butter mixture between two pretzels.
• Dip in melted chocolate (I use a fork to fish the pretzels out and bang off the excess chocolate).
• Let set up for several hours (overnight is best). Don't freeze as the peanut butter filling will cause the chocolate to sweat when they thaw out.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the melted butter, pretzel crumbs, confectioners' sugar and 1 cup of the peanut butter and stir together until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking dish. Combine the chocolate chips and the remaining 1/4 cup peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate and peanut butter are melted and smooth; two intervals should be enough. Mix to blend, then spread over the peanut butter-pretzel layer. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Combine peanut butter and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until combined. Add brown sugar and 1/2 powdered sugar and mix until well combined. Roll batter into 50 small balls, mixing in a bit more powdered sugar if batter sticks to your hands.
• Sandwich each ball between 2 pretzels and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place in the freezer.
• Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Remove pretzel bites from the freezer. Dip each one halfway into melted chocolate and return to the waxed paper until chocolate has hardened.

Steps:

• Line an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray. (I used the butter wrappers to grease but did not put any foil in the pan).
• In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric mixer, beat together 3/4 cup peanut butter, butter, and vanilla extract until creamy.
• Add confectioners' sugar and brown sugar.
• Slowly beat sugars into peanut butter until well-combined. Add 1 1/2 cup pretzels and beat to combine.
• Press mixture into the bottom of prepared baking dish.
• In a microwave safe bowl, melt together chocolate chips and remaining 1/4 cup peanut butter.
• Stir until smooth. Pour over the top and smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of crushed pretzels. Press down lightly.
• Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before cutting into bars and serving.
