CHOCOLATE PEANUT SWEETIES

Category: Candy

1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 cups confectioners sugar
5 dozen miniature pretzel twists, about 3 cups
1 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 tsp vegetable oil

In a bowl, beat first 2 ingredients until smooth. Beat in confectioners sugar until combined. Shape into 1 inch balls; press one on each pretzel. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate until peanut butter mixture is firm, about 1 hour.

Melt chocolate chips and oil in the microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth. Dip each peanut butter ball into chocolate and return to baking sheet, pretzel side down. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Store in the refrigerator.
