Healthy No Bake Chocolate Pretzel Bites
One of my favorite easy sweet treat snacks. I have seen these for years, but the ingredients always make them unhealthy and loaded with unecessary sugar. So I create a recipe that fixes all of that! Easy to make and fun to make. Kid approved as well as adult!

Ingredients
- 40 unsalted Whole Wheat Pretzel Minis
- 1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter make sure no added sugar
- 1 tbsp Chocolate Protein Powder we use Orgain
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips we use Enjoy Life Chocolate Mega Chunks
- ** sea salt flakes for sprinkling at the end
Instructions
- In a small bowl, add peanut butter, chocolate protein powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup. Take a spatula & mix until well combined. You will start to feel it thicken. Place in refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
- While the stuffing is setting, line baking sheet with parchment paper and then start matching your pretzel pairs. I like to stack each set
- (the top pretzel mini & bottom pretzel mini that will make the "bite", so you can quickly assemble!)
- Then take your filling out of the refrigerator. With a 1/2 tsp, start to portion out the filling. use 1/2 tsp of the filling for each bite. Scoop out the filling, roll it a bit in you hand. Press into the center of one of the minis, then press the other on top, creating the bite as seen above. Repeat until all are done!
- Then heat your chocolate in microwave in 30 second increments. Depending on the chocolate, I like to add a little bit of coconut oil before microwaving chocolate to make sure it doesn't burn. Keep doing 30 second increments and stirring in between until all melted.
- Then dip each half of the pretzel bites, sprinkle with salt on the chocolate, then let them set in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes-- then ENJOY!
