PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL TRUFFLES

The holidays are my favorite excuse to line our kitchen counters with every kind of treat imaginable. My boys look forward to it every year and now that they are a little older, than can help! Yay! We have so much fun making goodies for our cookie trays and holiday parties. We’ve got some yummy additions this year that I’m super excited about, especially these Peanut Butter Pretzel Truffles.

My Aunt Pam makes truffles every year – dozens upon dozens of truffles that she sells to friends and family. They’re delicious. Like melt in your mouth good. They’re the traditional truffle made with different flavored liqueurs and they are just stunning.

I love the simplicity of my aunt’s truffles – easy and elegant. Just like these Peanut Butter Pretzel Truffles.
