CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL BARS

Life has been crazzzy busy at our house lately. Namely, my little three-month-old has torticollis. It’s not a huge deal and hopefully will be easily fixed with some physical therapy over the next few months.

My toddlers are out of preschool for the summer so my days have been turned upside down with mom duties. Like I told my husband when he called during lunch-time and asked what we did that morning: “Nothing, and everything”.

“Nothing” meaning nothing super exciting because we were busy doing “everything”–laundry, potty training (which means exxxtra laundry) feeding hungry kids, stretching exercises with baby etc. There is no more important job in the world than being the mama of these special kids, but boy do these three keep me BUSY.


Ingredients

  • 12 ounces good quality semi-sweet chocolate chips ,divided (I like Ghirardelli brand best for melting)
  • 8 ounces mini pretzel twists ,half of a regular 16-ounce bag
  • 1 4 oz box Reese's Pieces candy
  • Peanut Butter Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt 8 ounces of the chocolate chips gently in the microwave (on low heat, stirring every 15 seconds) until smooth. Spread the chocolate evenly over the parchment. Immediately add the pretzel twists and Reese's Pieces over the top (it's ok if they overlap a little) and gently press them into the chocolate.
  3. For the peanut butter sauce:
  4. In a medium saucepan over medium heat add honey and sugar and stir well to combine. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 full minute, stirring. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Drizzle the peanut butter sauce over the top of the pretzels and candy. Melt remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and drizzle on top. 
  5. Refrigerate until hardened.
  6. Cut or tear into pieces. Store in the fridge.
