Ingredients
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups peanut butter
- 1 cup roasted salted peanuts
- 0.5 cups crushed pretzels
Directions
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat, ensuring it is flat and smooth.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Step 3
Once melted, fold in the roasted salted peanuts and crushed pretzels until they are evenly coated with the chocolate-peanut butter mixture.
Step 4
Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly to your desired thickness using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is completely set and hardened.
Step 6
Once set, remove from the refrigerator and break the peanut bark into small, bite-sized pieces using your hands or a knife.
Step 7
Store the crunchy peanut bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
