will work for dessert

Congrats to the Saints for your win! I Hope you all had your fill of yummy food for watching yesterday’s super bowl. The hangover I’m referring to is my tummy hanging over the front of my jeans from eating too much! We had a potluck at my friends’ house and all the food was good, there were so many desserts to choose from. The funny part was that three out of four desserts were made of chocolate and peanut butter. I brought over Peanut Butter and Pretzel Truffles. It was my first time making them, and truffles in general. They were pretty easy to make, so I’m linking to the recipe here. Only a few things I would like to point out: The recipe says it makes 20 pieces, however I doubled the recipe and made what I thought were normal sized truffles and was only able to make 20 pieces. Also when I was coating the peanut butter/ pretzel mixture, I would let some of the chocolate drip off. But this would leave the truffles with only a thin layer of chocolate. I made 1″ truffles, so I felt it needed more chocolate to balance the peanut butter. I ended up melting more chocolate and re-dipping the balls, but I would recommend not letting chocolate run off in the first place. I also had to give more time to freeze and refrigerate, but I did double the recipe. The only other thing to mention is rolling peanut butter is messy!

My friends said that they were good and delicious, so I would definitely recommend this recipe. If you do end up making the Peanut Butter-Pretzel Truffles, let me know how they turn out in the comments.
