How to Make Peanut Butter Pretzel Truffles

  1. Combine 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 1 1/2 cups crushed pretzels in a medium bowl.
  2. Mix well to ensure the peanut butter is evenly distributed amongst the crushed pretzels.
  3. Chill the mixture in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up.
  4. Roll the chilled peanut butter mixture into 20 small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  5. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for 1 hour, or until very firm.
  6. Melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips using your preferred method: microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth, or in a double boiler over simmering water.
  7. Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, insert each frozen peanut butter ball using a toothpick or fork.
  8. Place the chocolate-covered truffles back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  9. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
  10. Enjoy your delicious homemade Peanut Butter Pretzel Truffles!
