Steps:
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside. Make sure you have enough room in your freezer for the baking sheet or use the refrigerator in step 3.
- In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter and butter together with a spoon or use an electric mixer. Stir or beat in confectioners' sugar and brown sugar until a thick dough forms. Roll peanut butter dough into 30 small balls. If it seems really sticky and thin, add 1/4 cup (30g) confectioners' sugar.
- Sandwich balls between two pretzels and place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze for 20-30 minutes or refrigerate for 1 hour.
- While the pretzel bites are chilling, melt chopped chocolate in a double boiler or in 20 second increments in the microwave, stopping and stirring after each until smooth. Dip the pretzel bites halfway into the melted chocolate and place bite back on baking sheet. Refrigerate pretzel bites for at least 10-20 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Cover and store pretzel bites for up to 10 days in the refrigerator. Bites can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.

- Store in the refrigerator in a covered container for up to a week.
SALTED DARK CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL BITES
I make these around the holidays because not only are they delicious, but they are quick and easy. I can make them ahead of time and freeze them so they do not coincide with other holiday cooking. The dark chocolate and peanut butter make a unique version of a timeless favorite. Everyone loves them and they require very little effort!
