CHOCOLATE PRETZEL PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

Steps:

• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until nice and fluffy.
• Add peanut butter and beat until combined.
• Add vanilla extract and continue beating just until incorporated.
• Stir in powdered sugar, crushed pretzels and mini chocolate chips. (You can use your hands here to really work it all together. It's actually much faster. Likewise, you could put it all in stand mixer and mix it that way as well.)
• Shape into 1-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet. (You will need to give them a good squeeze in your hand before rolling into balls.)
• Refrigerate for one hour or freeze for 15 minutes.
• Combine chocolate chips with candy coating and melt according to package directions. (30 second intervals on high, stirring in between, usually does the trick.)
• Dip balls into melted chocolate, and place back on parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles, crushed peanuts, or crushed pretzels if desired.

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL ENERGY BALLS

Steps:

• Add dates to food processor (high speed blender will work here too) until broken up into small bits.
• Add in the peanut butter and cocoa powder and process to combine. Mixture will come together into a sticky ball.
• Break apart ball and add the pretzels. Pulse several times to break up pretzel bits.
• Roll into balls and store in freezer for 20 minutes to firm up.
• Keep in fridge for up to 2 weeks.

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL ENERGY BALLS

Steps:

• Stir together the oats, peanut butter, and honey.
• Crush the pretzels in a ziploc bag until they are in small pieces.
• Add the crushed pretzels and chocolate chips to the mixture.
• Form into balls. If the mixture is not sticking together for you, add water, 1 tsp at a time, until it does.
• Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE-PRETZEL-PEANUT BUTTER SQUARES

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.

CHOCOLATE-COVERED PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

Steps:

• Mix corn flakes cereal, confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, and butter together in a bowl. Scoop mixture using a melon baller into balls and arrange on a plate or baking sheet. Refrigerate until solid, at least 3 hours.
• Melt chocolate chips and oil in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes.
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Gently roll peanut butter balls in the melted chocolate until evenly coated; arrange on the same baking sheet.

CRISPY CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL BALLS

Steps:

• In a double boiler or microwave (on 50 % power, in a large bowl) melt the chocolate and peanut butter. If microwaving, start with a minute and then add additional time (30 secs at a time, mixing in between) until melted. Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
• Mix in the pretzels and rice cereal until everything is coated and well incorporated.
• Drop by the teaspoonful onto a lined cookie sheet and place in the fridge. Once hardened, you can transfer to a bag or container. These are best stored in the fridge.

PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL BITES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Combine peanut butter and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until combined. Add brown sugar and 1/2 powdered sugar and mix until well combined. Roll batter into 50 small balls, mixing in a bit more powdered sugar if batter sticks to your hands.
• Sandwich each ball between 2 pretzels and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place in the freezer.
• Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes.
• Remove pretzel bites from the freezer. Dip each one halfway into melted chocolate and return to the waxed paper until chocolate has hardened.
