Today is National Pretzel Day! Yep, get excited. I know it’s a little late in the day but there is still time to make these super easy chocolate covered pretzels. I wanted to give this classic treat a little update so I used pretzel chips and through in some peanut butter. The pretzels even have their own little “handle”, making dipping a cinch. You can have them done in about 30 minutes! How great is that?
And yes, there is a food for every day. Check out this link that lists each month at the bottom of the page, click on the month and it will take you to a daily list. Ya know, just in case you were wondering when you should plan on celebrating raisins or escargot or something ummmm…equally delicious…
Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Pretzel Chips
-Pretzel Chips
-Peanut Butter
-Dark, Milk or White Chocolate Candy Discs
Directions
In a medium bowl, microwave the chocolate until melted, stirring every 20 seconds. Spread a generous dollop of peanut butter on one side of the pretzel and dip in the melted chocolate. Place on foil and let dry completely. Decorate with a drizzle of white chocolate (if dipping in dark, or vice versa).
These were so good. The right about of salty + sweet + the peanut butter to round it all out. Yum.
