Ingredients

4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
30 braided honey-wheat pretzel twists (such as Snyder's of Hanover)

Preparation

1. Line a jelly-roll pan with parchment paper.
2. Place chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1 minute or until chocolate melts, stirring every 15 seconds. Stir in peanut butter until smooth. Working with 1 pretzel at a time, dip and roll 1 end of pretzel in chocolate mixture to coat. Place pretzel on prepared pan. Repeat procedure with remaining pretzels and chocolate mixture. Place in freezer for 30 minutes or until set.

Note:

Make-ahead tip: Dip the pretzels, and store in the fridge on a parchment-lined tray up to five days ahead. Set out shortly before serving, but not too far ahead, as the chocolate may melt.

A little too much peanut butter, jacob 11 years old

Good, solid recipe 01/26/13

Quick, easy, and delicious. I knew i would like these, and they came out better than anticipated. Salt and sweet is such a great combination. I double-dipped some for an extra awesome treat. Only thing holding back a 5-star rating is that these are not über impressive nor decadent. But good - so make them!

Very easy to do and also very good. i mixed different chocolates together and would try it again without the peanut butter.

SOOOOO good! I make them on Sunday and store in my fridge all week and use them as a little sweet snack. They definitely satisfy the salt and sweet cravings I get all the time!

Nom nom nom. These were really easy and very delicious! They took a lot less time than the estimated 25 minutes of hands-on time.
