YESSS—no-bake peanut butter pretzel clusters are dangerously snackable 😄🥨🥜 Sweet, salty, crunchy, and ridiculously easy. You don’t even need to turn on the oven.
No-Bake Peanut Butter Pretzel Clusters
Ingredients (makes ~20 clusters)
- 1½ cups mini pretzels (broken into chunks)

- 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter (for smooth melting)
- Optional add-ins:
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts
- ¼ cup mini marshmallows
- Sprinkles or sea salt flakes
Instructions
- Melt Chocolate
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips + coconut oil in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Mix Peanut Butter
- Stir peanut butter into melted chocolate until fully combined and glossy.
- Add Pretzels
- Fold in broken pretzels (and any add-ins) until coated.

- Set
- Refrigerate 20–30 minutes until firm.

Pro Tips
- Use natural peanut butter only if well-stirred (too oily = soft clusters).
- Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before chilling for next-level flavor.
- Want extra crunch? Add rice cereal or crushed cornflakes.
Flavor Variations
- White chocolate + peanut butter
- Nutella pretzel clusters
- Peanut butter + butterscotch chips
