Easy, no-bake Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Pretzels are the perfect sweet and salty combo. Two pretzels that are stuffed with a peanut butter filling and dipped in chocolate coating. If you love a peanut butter and chocolate combination these are going to be a favorite sweet treat.

Perfectly crunchy, sweet and salty these easy Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Pretzels are one of my go-to treats for the holidays, but they are good no matter when you make them. The peanut butter frosting in between the pretzels is smooth and creamy. Pair that with the crunch of the pretzels and the melt in your mouth chocolate it’s pretty much heaven on earth! Any chocolate covered pretzel is a good idea.

They are freezer friendly so you can make a big batch and pop them in the freezer in an airtight container or ziploc bag. A great bonus for when you are making treats for your holiday cookie trays!

STORAGE TIPS!

  • Refrigerate Them – These can be stores in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
