Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x9" baking pan with heavy foil that was sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Mix together pretzels, 3 tablespoons of the sugar and the 1/2 cup butter. Press into prepared pan; bake 8 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Set aside to cool completely. Once pretzel crust is cool, spread ice cream on top; put in freezer until ice cream hardens. Mix together peanut butter and marshmallow fluff, a little at a time, then stir in powdered sugar. Mix in vanilla wafers. Spread mixture on top of ice cream and return to freezer. In a saucepan, melt the 1 Tbsp. butter on low heat; add chocolate chips, stirring until melted. Spread over peanut butter mixture and place back into freezer. Remove from freezer about 10 minutes before serving. Lift foil and remove from pan; place onto a cutting board. Cut with a sharp knife dipped in hot water, into 12 or 15 pieces.

 

Notes: If you like candy buckeyes you will love this; it's a combination of sweet and salty.
