Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Butterscotch chips
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 cups Unsalted peanuts
- 1 cup (lightly crushed) Mini pretzels
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter.
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. This should take about 1.5 to 2 minutes.
Stir in the unsalted peanuts and lightly crushed mini pretzels until evenly coated with the melted mixture.
Spoon heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to create individual candy clusters.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each candy cluster for a salty-sweet finish.
Refrigerate the baking sheet for 1 hour or until the candy sets and hardens.
Once set, remove the clusters from the baking sheet and store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
Serve and enjoy your homemade Chipper Peanut Candy!
