Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Bars Recipe @pinch

Cereal treats are always popular and this recipe combines three things we love - chocolate, peanut butter, and pretzels. Sweet and salty, these no-bake bars are perfect for a summer picnic or an after-school treat. Thanks to the pretzels, the texture of these is crunchier than other cereal treats. You could add more mini marshmallows if you'd like. An easy no-bake dessert that will be gobbled up in no time. Definitely, an 'over-the-top' dessert that always gets raves from those who indulge in these decadent bars! And with no baking involved, there's no need to turn your kitchen into a sauna to make something scrumptious for that summer bbq or picnic.
