# Ingredients:
→ Core Components
01 -
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
02 -
1 bag (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
03 -
1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips
04 -
1 bag (15 oz) corn chips (Fritos)
# Instructions:
01 -
Cover a big baking tray with foil or wax paper. Scatter the corn chips out so they’re spread evenly.
02 -
Pour chocolate chips evenly over the corn chips, keeping a small portion (about 1/4 cup) aside for later.
03 -
In the microwave, heat the white chocolate chips with peanut butter in short bursts, stirring every 30 seconds. Don’t let it heat too much or the white chocolate may clump.
04 -
Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the tray of corn chips and chocolate chips. Quickly stir it all gently with a spatula to coat everything and swirl the chocolate layers.
05 -
Toss the leftover chocolate chips on top, then leave the tray to cool completely until everything hardens.
06 -
Once the hardened mix is ready, break it into small chunks, similar to cookies. Keep it in a sealed container for up to seven days.
# Notes:
01 -
Both ways of preparing it will work fine, but the quick version is faster and less complicated. That said, stirring on the tray might get messy.
02 -
For a chilled alternative, freeze the chocolate chips around 45 minutes beforehand, mix all ingredients in a bowl first, and then spread them on the tray.

These are fantastic as gifts! Use fancy jars or wrap them up in colorful bags to make them extra special.
