Why You’ll Love This No-Bake Snack
- Perfect Texture: You get a creamy center with a hidden salty crunch in every single bite.
- Zero Oven Time: Ideal for hot summer days or when your oven is occupied during the holidays.
- Gift-Worthy: These look like they came from a high-end chocolatier but take very little effort to assemble.
What You’ll Need
- 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
- 1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1 cup Pretzels (finely crushed)
- 1 1/2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 tbsp Coconut Oil (for melting)
- Extra Pretzels or Flaky Salt (optional garnish)
Step-by-Step Instructions
- The Base: In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter and powdered sugar until a thick dough forms. If it’s too sticky, add a little more sugar.
- The Crunch: Stir in the crushed pretzels until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Roll: Scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.
- The Shell: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.
- Dip: Using a fork, dip each chilled ball into the chocolate, let the excess drip off, and return to the parchment paper.
- Set: Immediately top with a small pretzel piece or a pinch of sea salt. Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes until the chocolate is set.
Chef’s Secret: For the best texture, don’t pulverize the pretzels into dust. Keep some small bits for that signature “crunch” factor!
