Instructions
- Line a 9” square baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Crush the pretzels. You can do this in a food processor to make more uniform chunks or you can place them in a plastic bag and crush them unevenly.
- Combine the crushed pretzels, melted butter, powdered sugar and 1 cup of peanut butter in a medium bowl. Stir until well combined.
- Press pretzel mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9”x9” baking pan.
- Combine chocolate chips and remaining ¼ cup of peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave for 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted.
- Spread over pretzel peanut butter mixture.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting.
- Slice into bite-sized pieces and enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe originally appeared on Hostess at Heart and was adapted very slightly as a part of the Freaky Friday collaboration.
- How to store: After slicing, transfer to a platter or airtight storage container. If using a platter, wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to 5 days.
- How to freeze: Freeze the bars in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Defrost them in the fridge before enjoying.
