Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Bugles are the ultimate sweet and salty snack. You get that awesome peanut butter/chocolate combination- aka the best flavor combination in the world! Plus the crunchy, salty goodness of a Bugle. I looooove how light and crispy bugles are.

 
Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Bugles make a great holiday treat, New Year’s Eve snack or an after school snack and the kids will love to help make them. You can dress them up for the holidays by coating them in sprinkles after you dip them in chocolate. Elf Shoes!!

 
You can use candy melts instead of chocolate chips if you wish. The shortening is optional and just helps keep the chocolate a little softer once it sets. It’s not needed with the candy melts.
Be sure to store Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Bugles in an air-tight container. Bugles tend to get stale really fast.
