Preparation

Step 1

Microwave 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/2 cup chocolate chips, 6 T butter and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract on high in 15 second increments, stirring in between, until just melted.

Add 1 cup crushed pretzels and 1 cup confectioner's sugar. Using an electric mixer on medium, beat to blend.

Immediately press into a foil-lined 8" square pan.

Microwave 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips at 50% power in 15 second increments, stirring in between, until just melted. Pour over cookie base. Decorate immediately with sprinkles and pretzels. The picture showed it sprinkled with green and red tiny round non-parelles and large pretzels about 1" apart.

Let stand until set, about 1 hour. Cut into 2" squares.
