What’s spookier than a mystery pretzel found in your suitcase purchased from an unidentified airport on an unknown trip from who knows how long ago? These Peanut Butter Stuffed Chocolate Dipped Pretzels. And by spooky, I mean that in the spooktacularly-cute Halloween sense, of course. The mystery pretzel is the other kind of spooky.
1 cup JUSTIN’S® Peanut Butter (any variety)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
3/4 cup maple sugar (or brown sugar)
½ cup powdered sugar
8 ounces dark chocolate bark
60 pretzel twists
Halloween sprinkles, flaky sea salt (optional)
1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter and coconut oil together. Stir or beat in sugars until a thick dough forms. Roll mixture into 30 small balls.
3. Sandwich peanut butter between two pretzels and place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze for 20-30 minutes.
4. In the meantime, melt chocolate bark in 20 second increments in the microwave, stopping and stirring after each until smooth.
5. Dip the pretzel bites halfway into the melted chocolate and place bite back on baking sheet. Decorate with sprinkles or flaky sea salt as desired. Refrigerate pretzel bites for at least 10-20 minutes to set the chocolate. Enjoy!
Why shouldn’t snacktime be special? But also simple to prepare and wholesome, because special doesn’t have to mean over the top. This Crunchy Banana “Roll” is sure to prompt even the hangriest snacker to crack a smile. And then throw some elbows on their way to grabbing their share of the best afternoon snack ever.
Everybody’s favorite part of making cookies is getting to snack on the dough. It’s so good I decided that it should be the main event, not just a background character.

This is usually where I’d make a clever joke about rabbits, but when it comes to my Cinnamon Almond Carrot Cake Muffins, I don’t mess around. Trust me, the joke I had was good. Real good. Make sure you hurry to the grocery store and get everything you need—don’t forget JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter. Okay, I didn’t really have a joke. I couldn’t think of anything.
Who hasn’t realized at 5:45 that they forgot to prep dinner? I certainly have. More than once. So often, in fact, that I created a delicious, quick, and healthy meal that uses pantry staples.

Don’t tell anyone, but sometimes I forget to make dinner on purpose so that I have an excuse to make this dish!
