Reese’s Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites – Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Miniature sandwiched between two pretzels, dipped in melted chocolate and crushed Reese’s Mini Pieces; a sweet and salty, peanut-buttery dream!
I am a HUGE Reese’s fan. I haven’t met a Reese’s I didn’t like. I’ve probably mentioned this before, and this probably won’t be the last time either. I apologize for this, sometimes I get stuck on repeat. It’s just how I roll. You may have also noticed I am a sucker for chocolate treats, particularly ones that involve pretzels. I am a sweet and salty fiend. Aren’t we all? I thought that was a written rule?!
Anyway, if I haven’t made myself clear, my love for Reese’s and sweet and salty is how Reese’s Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites were born.

Can I make these without the added melted chocolate ? Or top with sprinkles?
Sarah says
Hi Leonora! Sure, you could just do Reese's cup in between the two pretzel snaps and exclude the additional melted chocolate and crushed Reese's Pieces. Thanks & Happy Baking! 🙂
