Introduction

Peanut Butter Fritos Candy is the ultimate sweet-and-salty treat that surprises everyone who tries it. Crunchy corn chips are coated in a rich, gooey peanut butter syrup and topped with smooth chocolate for a no-bake dessert that’s ridiculously easy and dangerously addictive. Perfect for parties, bake sales, or when you need a quick crowd-pleaser with minimal effort.

Ingredients

• 1 (9 oz) bag Fritos corn chips

• 1 cup peanut butter

• 1 cup light corn syrup

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Pan

Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread the Fritos evenly across the bottom, covering the pan completely.

Step 2: Heat the Syrup

In a large microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the corn syrup and sugar. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 1-minute intervals (about 3 minutes total) until the mixture reaches a rolling boil.

Step 3: Add the Peanut Butter

Carefully remove the hot syrup from the microwave. Immediately stir in the peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Step 4: Combine with Fritos

Pour the hot peanut butter mixture evenly over the Fritos. Work quickly, allowing the syrup to seep through the chips. Do not stir, as this can crush them.

Step 5: Set and Add Chocolate (Optional)

Let the candy cool at room temperature for about 1 hour. If using chocolate, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second microwave intervals, stirring until smooth. Spread evenly over the cooled peanut butter layer.

Step 6: Slice and Serve

Once the chocolate is set (refrigerate for 15–20 minutes if needed), cut into squares or bars and serve.

Conclusion

Peanut Butter Fritos Candy is proof that simple ingredients can create something truly unforgettable. With its crunchy texture, sweet peanut butter flavor, and optional chocolate finish, this no-bake dessert is a guaranteed hit. Easy to make and even easier to devour—don’t be surprised if it disappears fast!
