And even though I like to play around with different flavors (like these Scotcheroo Muddy Buddies, which are on point, or these Almond Joy Muddy Buddies or these Lemon White Chocolate Muddy Buddies), I really prefer the classic peanut butter and chocolate duo. So today I’ve taken the classic pairing that I love, kept things in the muddy buddy family, but put a totally different spin on the snack by replacing the chex cereal with peanut butter filled pretzels!! Listen. I don’t want to be the one tooting their own horn, but… you guys. This is pretty much genius. I don’t know why I haven’t been doing this forever and ever! Like really. Dessert brilliance. Right here. Just do it. If you’re a pretzel fan like I am, and a total sucker for a good salty-sweet combo, this is the snack mix for you! Continue to Content PB Pretzel Muddy Buddies Peanut butter filled pretzels replace rice cereal in this twist on a classic sweet snack mix. These pretzel bites are coated in peanut butter and chocolate, and then dusted with powdered sugar. You’ll be happily licking your fingers after each handful. Print Ingredients 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 1/4 cup unsalted butter 8 cups peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets 1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar Instructions Place the peanut butter, chocolate chips, and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium power for 1 minute or until the chocolate chips are melted. If needed, add additional heating time in 30-second increments, stirring after each time, until the chocolate, peanut butter, and butter are melted and the mixture is smooth. Add the pretzel pieces to the bowl. Using a large rubber spatula, gently stir to coat all of the pieces well. Place the confectioners’ sugar in a gallon-size zip-top bag. Spoon the coated pretzel pieces into prepared zip-top bag. Seal the bag and shake to coat the pretzels in the sugar. Once the pretzel pieces are coated, transfer to a bowl to serve immediately. The pretzels may be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
