Chocolate Peanut Butter Combos Candy Recipe
These delicious candies have a filling that tastes like peanut butter
cups, sitting on top of a pretzel and covered with chocolate.
Prep Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 25 minutes
Ingredients:
1 cup of peanut butter, smooth or crunchy crunchy or smooth
1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup club cracker crumbs
2 cups of confectioners' sugar
8 dozen small pretzel twists or square butter snaps pretzels (about 4
cups, approximately 5 ounces)
10 ounces special dark chocolate (2 5-ounce bars)
1 ounce paraffin, shaved
Preparation:
In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, graham cracker crumbs,
club cracker crumbs, and confectioners' sugar on low to medium-low speed
until well-mixed. Scrape sides often. Mixture will be very thick.
Using your hands, roll mixture into small balls about the diameter of
a dime and place each on a pretzel. Press down gently to cover the pretzel
and place on a jelly roll pan. Repeat until all of peanut butter mixture
is used. Refrigerate at least one hour to firm up.
Melt chocolate and paraffin in the top of a double-boiler until smooth.
Remove from heat. Swirl the tops of each of the pretzel candies in the
melted chocolate, shaking gently to remove excess and return to the jelly
roll pan with pretzel-side down. Refrigerate again to set chocolate.
Store leftovers between sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Cover and
refrigerate.
