Salted Peanut Butter Pretzels

December 8, 2017 By denise Leave a Comment

Sweet and Salty meet in these chocolate covered Salted Peanut Butter Pretzels. The perfect treat for friends and family this holiday season.

Have you started your Christmas baking? Do your bake lots of goodies for Christmas? I do and it all started this past weekend. I went crazy making all the things and am sharing them with family and friends this weekend. This Salted Peanut Butter Pretzels recipe was so simple and I can’t wait to share it with you. Keep reading for the full recipe.

I have some of my favorites that I make every year but this year I’m also adding in a few new recipes. All year long I am on the hunt for what can be added to me treat boxes.

When the publishers of Valerie’s Home Cooking Cookbook contacted me and asked if I’d like a copy of her new cookbook to review I jumped at the chance. I love her and her cooking show and knew she’d have some great recipes in there. And let me tell you I was not disappointed.  I was hoping for a recipe for my cookie boxes and I scored with these Salted Peanut Butter Pretzels. They are the perfect blend of sweet and salty. Every time I passed by my container I would open the lid and pop one in my mouth. I’ll have to make another batch for the boxes.

Have you seen Valerie’s cooking show, Valerie’s Home Cooking? She is such a down to earth cooking gal, kind of like me (if I do say so myself). She was also my favorite on One Day at a Time. Her cookbook is amazing and I can’t wait to make so many of the dishes in the book.

Below is the super simple recipe for these Salted Peanut Butter Pretzels. I added the salt because I can’t seem to make anything with chocolate and not include the salt. And I’m from Texas so we add pecans to a lot of things. You can leave both off for the original intent but I kind of like them either way.
