No-Bake Peanut Butter Pretzel Clusters

Ingredients

Ingredient	Amount
Mini pretzels, lightly crushed	2 cups
White chocolate chips (or semi-sweet/dark)	1½ cups
Creamy peanut butter	1 cup
Chopped peanuts (optional)	½ cup
Coconut oil or butter (optional)	1 tbsp
Sea salt flakes (optional)	For topping

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Pan
Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to keep the clusters from sticking.

Step 2: Melt the Chocolate
Place the white chocolate chips and coconut oil (or butter) in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring thoroughly after each, until the mixture is smooth.

Tip: White chocolate is delicate—once it’s mostly melted, stop heating and stir until fully smooth to avoid scorching.

Step 3: Build the Crunch
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the crushed pretzels, peanut butter, and chopped peanuts if you’re using them.

Step 4: Coat and Portion
Pour the melted chocolate over the pretzel mixture. Gently fold until everything is evenly covered, then spoon generous mounds onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5: Finish and Set
Lightly sprinkle with sea salt flakes for extra contrast, if desired. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or place in the freezer for about 20 minutes, until firm.

Step 6: Enjoy and Store
Serve straight from the fridge. Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
