In a bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, and vanilla. Add powdered sugar in increments until incorporated. Fold in sea salt, add more as desired.

Press mixture into a silicone mat-lined rimmed baking sheet. Smooth top and cover with plastic wrap. Place sheet in freezer for 10 minutes.

Using double boilers, melt dark, white, and milk chocolate wafers. Line another tray with parchment or wax paper and a cooling rack and set aside.
