Ingredients

1 16 ounce mini pretzel twists
1 1/2 cups butter melted
1 1/2 cups peanut butter creamy
3 cups powdered sugar
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 Tablespoon butter

Instructions

Set aside 2 cups of pretzels for the topping. Line a 9x13 baking dish with aluminum foil, have the ends stick out so you can lift the bars out
Using a food processor add the remaining pretzels and pulse until you get fine crumbs.
In a large bowl add in the pretzel crumbs, melted butter, peanut butter and powdered sugar and mix together until everything is combined. Press the mixture into the dish and flatten it using your hand or a spoon.
In a microwave safe bowl add the semisweet chocolate chips and the tbsp of butter, melt in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
Spread over the pretzel crust layer, making sure to spread it out with a spoon. Break up the pretzels you set aside and sprinkle them all over top of the chocolate and lightly press down so they stick better to the chocolate.
Cover and refrigerate for around 1 hour or until the chocolate has set. Remove the foil and cut into bars and enjoy!
