Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal later.
In a large bowl, mix the crushed pretzels, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create a crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, then allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.
In a medium bowl, beat together the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled pretzel crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted.
Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer, spreading it evenly all the way to the edges.
Refrigerate the bars for 2-3 hours, or until the chocolate layer is fully set.
Once set, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into 16 squares.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
