These No-Bake Peanut Butter Pretzel Clusters<\/strong> are the perfect sweet-and-salty treat! Crispy pretzels are coated in creamy peanut butter and rich melted chocolate, then chilled until perfectly set.<\/p>\n They\u2019re incredibly easy to make, require no oven<\/strong>, and are perfect for parties, holiday dessert trays, movie nights, or whenever you need a quick homemade treat. One bite and you\u2019ll understand why they disappear so fast!<\/p>\n Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.<\/p>\n Place the mini pretzels in a large mixing bowl. If using larger pretzels, gently break them into smaller bite-size pieces. Don\u2019t crush them too finely\u2014you want plenty of crunchy pieces in every cluster.<\/p>\n Add the creamy peanut butter to the pretzels. Stir gently until the pretzels are lightly coated.<\/p>\n Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20\u201330 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until completely smooth and melted.<\/p>\n For an extra smooth and glossy chocolate coating, stir in the coconut oil or butter.<\/p>\n If using white chocolate, be especially careful not to overheat it. Once it looks almost melted, simply keep stirring until the remaining pieces melt from the residual heat.<\/p>\n Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter-coated pretzels. Gently fold everything together until the pretzels are evenly coated in chocolate.<\/p>\n Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.<\/p>\n Keep the clusters slightly separated so they don\u2019t stick together.<\/p>\n While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt over each cluster. This gives them that irresistible sweet-and-salty flavor!<\/p>\n Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour<\/strong>, or place it in the freezer for approximately 20 minutes<\/strong>, until the clusters are firm and completely set.<\/p>\n Once firm, remove the clusters from the parchment paper and serve chilled or at room temperature.<\/p>\n Store the clusters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days<\/strong>.<\/p>\n They can also be frozen for up to 2 months<\/strong>. Let them sit for a few minutes before serving.<\/p>\n Work fairly quickly once the melted chocolate is mixed with the pretzels because the chocolate will begin to set. And don\u2019t skip the flaky sea salt\u2014it makes the chocolate and peanut butter flavor really pop!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" No-Bake Peanut Butter Pretzel Clusters These No-Bake Peanut Butter Pretzel Clusters are the perfect sweet-and-salty treat!
