Oh. My. Goodness. Ladies (and gents), let me tell you about this absolutely divine midnight/work snack that has literally been saving my sanity during those late-night cravings and endless work hours. Trust me, once you try these Sweet & Salty Nutella-stuffed Pretzel Bites, you’ll never look at regular snacks the same way again!
You know those moments when you’re either burning the midnight oil or desperately need a pick-me-up at work? Yeah, been there, done that, got the coffee stains on my shirt to prove it! 😅
Here’s what you’ll need (I promise it’s super simple):
– Mini pretzels
– Nutella (because, duh!)
– Sea salt
– Dark chocolate chips
– Crushed nuts (I use almonds, but you do you, honey!)
Now, let me walk you through this heavenly experience:
1. Grab those pretzels and lay them out on a parchment-lined baking sheet. I usually do about 20-25 at a time because, let’s be real, these disappear FAST!
1. Put a small dollop of Nutella (about 1/2 teaspoon) on each pretzel. Don’t go crazy – we’re making snacks, not starting a Nutella swimming pool (though that doesn’t sound half bad… 🤔).
1. Pop another pretzel on top and gently press down. It’s like making tiny pretzel sandwiches!
1. Here’s where the magic happens: Melt those dark chocolate chips in the microwave (30-second intervals, stirring in between).
Hey! While these are setting, why don’t you follow me on Newsbreak for more mouthwatering recipes? I’ve got tons of these little gems up my sleeve! 💁♀️
1. Dip half of each pretzel sandwich in the melted chocolate, sprinkle with sea salt and crushed nuts while the chocolate is still wet.
1. Pop them in the fridge for about 15 minutes (I know, the waiting is torture!).
And voilà! You’ve just made the most Instagram-worthy, taste bud-tantalizing snack ever! They’re perfectly portable for work, and trust me, your coworkers will be begging for the recipe (sharing is caring, but maybe keep a secret stash for yourself 😉).
The best part? These babies stay fresh in an airtight container for up to a week – if they last that long! Mine usually disappear within 48 hours… don’t judge me!
