Step 1: Set Up Your Station Line a baking sheet or large plate with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself later!

Step 2: Create the Base In a large mixing bowl, combine the broken pretzel pieces with the creamy peanut butter. Use a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon to mix until every pretzel piece is evenly coated with that golden peanut butter goodness.

Step 3: Add the Sweet Magic Gradually sprinkle in the powdered sugar, mixing continuously. The mixture should become slightly sticky but still moldable—this is exactly what you want for perfect clusters!

Step 4: Shape Your Clusters Using clean hands (slightly damp hands work even better), scoop out portions about the size of a golf ball and gently form them into rustic clusters. Place each one on your prepared parchment paper, leaving space between them.

Step 5: Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely smooth and glossy. Don’t rush this step—perfectly melted chocolate makes all the difference!

Step 6: The Grand Finale Drizzle the melted chocolate generously over each cluster using a spoon or fork. Go wild with the patterns—messy is beautiful here! If you’re using sea salt, sprinkle it on while the chocolate is still warm.

Step 7: Set and Chill Pop the whole tray into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely hardened. This is the hardest part—waiting!

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy Carefully peel the clusters off the parchment paper and arrange them on your prettiest serving platter. Watch them disappear faster than you can say “more please!”
