Ingredients

• 4 oz cream cheese softened
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/2 bag waffle pretzels (about 60)
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips I like to use Ghirardelli 60% baking chips
• sprinkles optional

Instructions

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, add the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla.
• Using a hand mixer, mix on medium speed until fully combined and smooth.
• Scoop some of the peanut butter mix (about a teaspoon but it doesn't have to be exact - I didn't measure), onto a pretzel and gently shape it into a square. Sandwich another pretzel on top and gently press them together. Place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until you're out of peanut butter mix.
• Place the entire baking sheet into the fridge while you're melting the chocolate.
• In a small microwave safe bowl, pour in the chocolate chips. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat until fully melted and smooth.
• Dip each pretzel sandwich halfway into the chocolate and let the excess drip off. Put back onto the parchment papered baking sheet.
• Immediately add the sprinkles, if desired.

Notes

Store them in the fridge, covered, for up to a week.
