Melt 12 tablespoons of butter in the microwave.

Add 2 cups of crumbled pretzels to the mixture.

Stir in 1.5 cups of confectioner's sugar and mix thoroughly.

Pour the mixture into an ungreased 13 by 9 inch baking dish, pressing it down into all corners and sides to create a thin layer.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals to avoid burning.

Add the remaining 1/4 cup of peanut butter to the melted chocolate and mix until smooth.

Pour the chocolate mixture over the pretzel peanut butter layer and spread it evenly.

Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least one hour, or overnight for best results.

Cut into bars of any size and store in the refrigerator.
