I found several versions of this recipe online. Versions can be found at LilyShop or FoodaPhelia. I modified the recipe as follows, omitting the butter and reducing the sugar.
Ingredients:1 cup peanut butter (I used reduced fat PB - shhhhh don't tell my husband)
1/2 cup granulated or Brown sugar
1/2 cup powdered (confectioners) sugar
Semi-Sweet chocolate chips for melting
Waffle pretzels (square or round, but I suppose you could just use mini pretzels as well)
Next up, make the filling by combining the sugars and peanut butter until it makes a nice solid ball. If it's too sticky add more confectioners sugar, if it's not sticky enough add more peanut butter.
Then, you'll be making small 1/2 - 1" round balls for the middle of the sandwiches. and pressing them together as follows:
After the PB sandwiches are made, you want to stick these guys in the fridge for a bit, while you melt the chocolate in a double boiler or using your preferred method. (If you don't refrigerate them in between dipping them in chocolate, they will be soft and you will end up pinching the end you are holding to dip as you can see from some of the bites below - they'll taste just as good, just look a little catawampus)
Refrigerate or leave out on counter to cool. Again we prefer these refrigerated as well. Enjoy!
