Mmmmmmmmmmmmm! All the flavors of Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby ice cream. It's vanilla ice cream with chocolate & peanut butter & pretzels. It is creamy & sweet with a hint of saltiness from the pretzels.

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cup(s) all purpose flour
1 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1 1/2 stick(s) butter, unsalted, room temperature
1 cup(s) light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup(s) sugar
2 x large eggs
1/3 cup(s) peanut butter, crunchy
1 tablespoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup(s) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cup(s) pretzels, chopped, divided
1/2 cup(s) peanut butter chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9" x 13" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray (I like bakers joy).
  • Put your pretzels in a sealable bag & roughly chop them up. I just pound mine with a rolling pin. You don't want them to be pulverized because you want folks to really be able to see & taste the pretzels in the bars.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda & salt; mix well.
  • Using a stand mixer, beat together butter, brown sugar & sugar at medium speed. Mix until combined & fluffy.
  • Now add in eggs, vanilla & peanut butter.
  • On low speed, slowly add in your flour mixture just until it is incorporated into the batter. Overmixing your batter can result in a tougher bar.
  • Now add in 1 C semi-sweet chocolate chips & 1 C chopped pretzels.
  • Stir this mixture up with a spoon, batter will be very stiff. Or you can turn your mixer back on the lowest setting until it is combined, just don't overmix it.
  • Spread batter into baking pan. This stuff is pretty thick so just do your best to spread it out evenly.
  • In a small bowl, mix together your remaining toppings (1/2 cup chopped pretzels, 1/4 cup chocolate chips & 1/2 cup peanut butter chips).
  • Sprinkle mixture over top of batter.
  • Bake about 30 - 35 minutes until golden brown.
  • Cool completely before cutting into squares.
