Servings 54 pretzels
Calories 34kcal
Ingredients
- 54 mini pretzels (about 2 ¼ cups or 3 oz.)
- 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Christmas colored sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in a heat-safe bowl in 30-second increments until the chocolate is completely melted. (I heat mine in 30-second bursts until melted. Stir after each round so that the chocolate does not burn. If the chocolate is still a little thick after it’s mostly melted, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil to thin it out. This will make it easier for dipping.)
- Dip the pretzels into the melted chocolate. Use forks to dunk and flip the pretzels until coated.
- Place the chocolate dipped pretzels to the prepared sheet pan. Let them set for 10 minutes.
- Transfer the rest of the melted chocolate into a piping bag or a plastic baggie.
- Snip the bag's tip, and drizzle the chocolate over the pretzels to create some texture.
- Sprinkle on the colorful sprinkles.
- Let the chocolate set for 30-45 minutes before transferring to an airtight container and enjoying!
Notes
How to store: Once the chocolate is set, transfer to an airtight food storage container for up to 3 weeks. Keep in the fridge so that the chocolate does not melt.
