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.
NO-BAKE PEANUT BUTTER, CHOCOLATE AND PRETZEL BARS
Steps:
- Line an 8- or 9- inch square baking pan with foil.
- Melt 8 tablespoons of the butter and add to a large bowl. Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, vanilla and 1 cup of peanut butter and stir until well combined. Transfer the peanut butter mixture to the prepared baking pan and smooth with an offset spatula to create an even layer.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 275°. Using a greased cookie sheet, place a Hershey Kiss on each pretzel square. Place cookie sheet in the oven for about 2 minutes. All you want to do is soften the kiss. As soon as you take them out of the oven, press an M&M in the center of each kiss. Put them in the fridge or freezer to harden and then store them at room temp in an airtight container.
