What are chocolate covered pretzels?
Chocolate covered pretzels are delicious little treats with the perfect combination of sweet and salty flavours. These pretzels are made easy by simply using mini pretzels, dipping them in chocolate and then covering them in yummy milk chocolate M&Ms.
These holiday treats are so much fun for kids of all ages to make and take to school events or parties.
This easy treat can be personalized with a wide variety of festive ingredients! Try using: a pretzel rod, dark chocolate, marshmallow fluff, white chocolate chips, peanut butter, square pretzels, crushed candy cane, chocolate candy melts instead of white, hershey kisses or other kinds of candy!
How to make white chocolate pretzels with M&Ms:

Ingredients:
- 12-20 Mini Pretzels
- 6 oz White Chocolate Candy Melts
- 1/4 cup M&Ms
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate wafers in the microwave at 15 second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is completely smooth. Dip the pretzels in chocolate to completely cover each one.
Tip: using a fork allows the excess chocolate to drip off of the pretzel.
2. Place the treats on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet (or wire rack).
3. Add candy to the top of each pretzel before the chocolate cools. Press the M&Ms into the chocolate so that they really “stick”.
4. Place the pretzel treats in the fridge and allow the chocolate to harden completely before serving.
Tips for making these pretzels 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.

Some of my kitchen essentials:
- I love using this non-stick bakeware for all of my baking.
- These silicone mitts are perfect for grasping hot pans and baking dishes.
- This Henckel Knife is my favorite for slicing and dicing in the kitchen.
- These parchment paper bags are perfect for packaging and these large Rubbermaid food storage containers are great for storing baking in the freezer.
These delicious treats would make a lovely hostess gift at your next party. Simply wrap in wax paper, tuck into a gift bag or festive tins and tie with bakers twine!
This is a great recipe for theme specific events! Use only green m&ms for a hulk birthday party for example, a red m&m for Valentine’s Day or holiday m&ms for Christmas.
I try to have a large bowl of these Christmas dipped pretzels out for the holiday season. These homemade treats combine salty pretzels and yummy chocolate into a treat that is one of our family favorites.
