Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 12 pieces Pretzel Rods (Gluten-free options available)
  • 1 cup Milk Chocolate Wafers (Can substitute with dark or white chocolate)
  • 1 cup Fall Sprinkles (Other seasonal sprinkles can be used)


Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: Place the milk chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on defrost mode for about 2 minutes, then stir well. Continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and glossy.
  2. Dip the pretzels: Carefully dip half of each pretzel rod into the melted chocolate. Lift the pretzel out slowly, allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl for an even coating.
  3. Decorate with sprinkles: Lay the dipped pretzel rods on parchment paper. While the chocolate is still warm, quickly sprinkle the fall-themed sprinkles over the chocolate to ensure they stick well.
  4. Let chocolate harden: Allow the pretzel rods to cool completely on the parchment paper at room temperature. This cooling process will take approximately 30 minutes for the chocolate to fully harden.

Notes

  • You can substitute milk chocolate wafers with dark or white chocolate based on preference.
  • For gluten-free options, choose certified gluten-free pretzel rods.
  • Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking during cooling.
  • Store chocolate-covered pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
