Categories: dessert, not tried

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces pretzel rods
  • 12 ounces milk chocolate chips (or melting disks)
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
  • Candy sprinkles (optional)
  • Miniature m&ms (optional)
  • mini Reese's pieces (optional)
  • Chopped peanuts (optional)

Directions

  1. Melt milk chocolate chips in double boiler or i microwave (be careful not to burn in the microwave).

  2. If you are using the white chocolate, wait until later before melting unless you can keep it over warm water.

  3. Dip each pretzel rod about 2/3 of the way up in chocolate.

  4. Lay on wax paper lined baking sheets, lining up the rods but leave a bit of space between them.

  5. Allow to set a little, but not completely dry (while waiting, make sure your white chocolate is ready).

  6. Dip a fork into the white chocolate and drizzle over the milk chocolate by gently swishing the fork back and forth over the rods but not touching them.

  7. Place you sprinkles or candies on a paper plate and roll each pretzel rod in desired topping (or just sprinkle on).

  8. Lay back on wax paper to set completely.

  9. These look great displayed in, or given in, a unique glass or mug.
