Ingredients
-
For the Dipped Pretzels:
- 12 pretzel rods
- 1 cup chocolate chips (milk, dark, or white chocolate)
-
For Coating:
- Sprinkles, crushed nuts, or melted chocolate (optional)
Instructions
-
Melt the Chocolate:
- Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.
-
Dip the Pretzels:
- Hold each pretzel rod by one end and dip it into the melted chocolate, coating about two-thirds of the rod. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the pretzel on parchment paper.
-
Add Toppings:
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle your choice of toppings over the coated area. You can opt for colorful sprinkles, crushed nuts, or even drizzle more melted chocolate on top for extra flavor.
-
Cool the Pretzels:
- Allow the pretzel rods to cool on the parchment paper until the chocolate hardens. For quicker results, place the pretzels in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
-
Serve:
- Once the chocolate is set, serve your chocolate dipped pretzel rods on a platter, or store them in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
