Recipe of the Month - Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Pretzel Nuggets



Ingredients:

  • 1 container of Peanut Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets (I use a 44 oz. size of Herr’s nuggets from Sam’s Club.)
  • 1 lb. pkg. of milk chocolate wafers (ex. Wilton’s) or 1 lb. of Nestle’s milk chocolate chips.
  • 1 pkg. of white chocolate wafers
Directions:

  1. Put some water in the bottom of 2 double boilers (or smaller pots setting in bigger pots with water in them will work). Add chocolates to pots on top. Turn on low & melt each of your chocolates. Stirring occasionally.
  2. Empty nuggets into a large flat baking pan w/sides (may have to use more than one pan). Make sure the nuggets are in a single layer. After chocolates melt take a spoon & scoop up some of the milk chocolate & drizzle it rather heavily over the nuggets. Continue until all nuggets are covered (to whatever degree you like). Let dry & turn nuggets over & repeat. After both sides are dry drizzle a lighter coating of the white over each side (letting dry between coats). When dry break into separate pieces & store in a Tupperware container for your family or for a gift put in Christmas tins. (This produces a much quicker batch of candy than individually dipping each nugget. Any left over chocolate can be used to dip/cover oreos, peanuts, strawberries, etc.)
