Chocolate covered pretzels are easy, and delicious, but CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZELS are simply amazing. We’ve been making these for years. My husband used to make chocolate pretzels for his coworkers at Christmas (now I usually send English toffee to the office with him). He made all different kinds, and peanut butter was always our favorite.

I usually have the ingredients on hand so they are a great late night snack to whip up—this is a no judgement zone.

Mac had fun making them with me for the video. He kept said, “These are amazing. These are SO yummy. These are my favorite.”
