Servings: 36 pretzel rods
Ingredients
- 6 ounces milk chocolate chips
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 36 pretzel rods
- festive sprinkles optional
- mini chocolate chips, crushed peppermint candies, mini M&Ms optional
Instructions
- In a heat-proof bowl, add the 6 ounces milk chocolate chips and 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
- Place the bowl over a saucepan with 1 inch of simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl isn’t touching the water. Let heat while occasionally stirring to melt the chocolate chips completely.
- Once the chocolate chips are completely melted, dip the 36 pretzel rods into the chocolate one at a time. Tap the wrist of the hand holding the pretzels until most of the excess chocolate has dripped off.
- Place the pretzels on a piece of parchment paper or wax paper.
- While the chocolate is still wet, coat with sprinkles or candies.
- Let the chocolate harden before transferring to an airtight container to store at room temperature.
