Peanut Butter Pretzel Buckeyes

If you like the traditional buckeyes you are going to like the added crunch you get from the pretzels! These are sweet , salty and crunchy all at the same time! YUP, it’s a happy day! This makes a big batch so go ahead and share with your friends!

INGREDIENTS
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 Tablespoons softened butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
pretzels (I used the little square ones)
1 bag of Ghirardelli dark chocolate melting chips

DIRECTIONS
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment beat peanut butter and butter until combined, scrape down the bowl and add the sugars mixing until combined. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the mixture on to one of the pretzels and top with a second pretzel placing on your prepared baking sheet. When you have them all “sandwiched” place the baking sheet in the freezer for about thirty minutes. After thirty minutes remove the pretzels from the freezer and melt your chocolate according to the package directions. One at a time. dip half of the pretzel into the chocolate and place back on the baking sheet. Continue until all of the pretzels are done.  Place baking sheet in the refrigerator until chocolate is firm about 20 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and store in a Ziploc bag in the fridge!

Enjoy,
