Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl microwave safe
  • 1 Baking Sheet lined with parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag Pretzel Rods or Pretzel Twists
  • 8 ounces melting chocolate
  • 8 ounces melting white chocolate

Instructions
 

  • To make chocolate pretzels, melt the chocolate in a double boiler over medium heat or in a microwave-safe bowl. If microwaving, begin with just heating for one minute, stirring at 15-second increments until the chocolate is completely melted.
  • Once the chocolate is ready, using a fork carefully dip each pretzel twist into the bowl of chocolate. If using pretzel rods, melt the chocolate in a microwave safe mug or deep bowl, then dip pretzels into chocolate.
  • Make sure to coat each pretzel evenly and shake off any excess chocolate before transferring to the baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper lined cookie sheet.
  • Let pretzels sit to allow the chocolate to set for 15 minutes to 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Once you have finished dipping the pretzels into melted chocolate, top off the chocolate with sprinkles before it has time to set. 
If you have additional chocolate that has dripped on the waxed paper, you can save it and re-melt it for future use. 
For extra salty treats, you can sprinkle flaky salt on top of the melted chocolate. 
When done dipping, scrap the sides of the bowl over wax paper to remove any chocolate. Do not rinse melted chocolate down the drain because it will harden.
