Description

Crispy pretzels dipped in rich chocolate and topped with festive sprinkles or drizzle – this no-bake treat is fast, fun, and impossible to resist. Perfect for holiday parties, edible gifts, or a cozy kitchen project with the kids.


Ingredients

Scale

40 mini pretzels or 20 pretzel rods

12 oz semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

12 oz white chocolate chips or melts

Holiday sprinkles, crushed candy canes, or sea salt for topping


Instructions

Prep your station
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

Melt chocolate
In microwave-safe bowls, melt chocolates separately in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

Dip the pretzels
Dip each pretzel halfway into chocolate (or swirl both chocolates for a marbled look). Tap gently to remove excess.

Decorate
While chocolate is still wet, top with sprinkles, candy cane pieces, or sea salt.

Set & serve
Place on the baking sheet and let set at room temperature or chill for 10–15 minutes until firm.
