Ingredients:
- 12-20 Mini Pretzels
- 6 oz White Candy Melts
- Red M&Ms
- Red sprinkles
Tip: pretzel rods, large pretzels, pretzel twists, pretzel sticks or square pretzels can be used instead of mini ones.
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, melt the white chocolate wafers in the microwave at 15 second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is completely smooth. Dip the pretzels into the chocolate and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
2. Top the white chocolate pretzels with M&Ms and sprinkles. Press the M&Ms into the chocolate so that they really stick.
3. Place the chocolate pretzels in the fridge and allow the chocolate to harden completely before serving.
Tips for making these Canada Day treats:
- Use candy melts for best results, the wafer chocolate melts the best. Add one teaspoon of coconut oil to other chocolate to help it melt and pour better.
- Lay the chocolate covered treat on a parchment lined baking sheet for easy moving and transporting before the chocolate has hardened.
- Place the chocolate in the fridge or freezer to completely cool before serving.
How long do chocolate dipped pretzels last?
Store these yummy treats in a large freezer bag or airtight container for up to one month at room temperature. They can also be stored in the fridge to prevent the chocolate from melting or in the freezer for months.
