Ingredients

    1/2 cup crunchy natural peanut butter (I used my homemade cashew butter)
    1/4 cup finely chopped salted pretzels (I used Honey Wheat Pretzels, about 4.5 sticks)
    1/2 cup milk chocolate chips, melted (see Tip) (I used Trader Joe's 72% dark chocolate)

    Tip: To melt chocolate, microwave on Medium for 1 minute. Stir, then continue microwaving on Medium, stirring every 20 seconds, until melted. Or place chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, but not boiling, water. Stir until melted.

Directions

Combine peanut butter and pretzels in a small bowl. Chill in the freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.

Roll the peanut butter mixture into 20 balls (about 1 teaspoon each). Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper and freeze until very firm, about 1 hour.

Roll the frozen balls in melted chocolate. Refrigerate until the chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.

TIPS & NOTES
Make Ahead Tip: Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
