This Peanut Butter Pretzel Bark is perfect to satisfy any craving for chocolate and peanut butter! An amazing salty-sweet treat!
Equipment
- Sheet Pan Fantastic for Christmas cookie and candy making!
- Icing Spatula This 3-piece Icing spatula set by Wilton is great for frosting, and ideal for spreading chocolate evenly.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 oz. pkg.) Chocolate Candy Quik
- 1 (10 oz. pkg.) Peanut Butter Chips about 1 2/3 cup
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or shortening
- 1 1/2 cup pretzel twists or any other type of pretzel
- 2/3 cup salted peanuts
- 2/3 cup mini peanut butter cups
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper. Set aside. Set out the pretzels, peanuts and peanut butter cups, so they are ready to go when you need them.
- In the microwave, melt the chocolate candy quik according to package directions. (If using this product, it will come in a microwave-safe melting tray. This works well.)
- In a separate microwave safe bowl, add the oil (or shortening) to the peanut butter chips, and microwave for 1 minute. Stir and heat on 30 second increments until completely melted and smooth.
- Immediately spread the chocolate onto the pan into a large rectangle, about 1/4" thick. Pour the melted peanut butter chips over the top of the chocolate, and using a spatula, swirl the two together.
- Working quickly, sprinkle on the pretzels, peanuts and peanut butter chips. Freeze for about 20 minutes for the bark to set and harden.
- Break into snack sized pieces. Enjoy!
Notes
Storage: Bark can be stored at room temperature. Store in an airtight container or Zip-Loc bag. Will keep for up to 7 days at room temperature.
Freezing: Bark does well when frozen. Store pieces in a freezer bag or container. When ready to serve let bark defrost at room temperature, for 4-6 hours.
