Ingredients
– 1 bag of pretzel rods (about 15-20 rods)
– 1 cup chocolate chips (milk or dark)
– ½ cup white chocolate chips (for drizzling)
– Autumn-themed sprinkles (e.g., candy corn, fall leaves)
– Parchment paper (for cooling)
Instructions
Making Fall Pretzel Rods is a delightful process! Follow these step-by-step instructions for a successful treat:
1. Prepare Your Workspace: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to catch any drips and make cleanup easy.
2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.
3. Dip the Pretzels: Hold each pretzel rod by one end and dip it into the melted chocolate, covering approximately 2/3 of the rod. Allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
4. Add Sprinkles: Immediately sprinkle your autumn-themed sprinkles over the melted chocolate before it sets. Ensure an even layer for a festive touch.
5. Place on Baking Sheet: Carefully lay the dipped pretzel rods on the prepared parchment paper. Repeat the process for all rods.
6. Melt White Chocolate: In another bowl, melt the white chocolate chips using the same method as before.
7. Drizzle White Chocolate: Using a fork or piping bag, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the pretzel rods for added sweetness and a beautiful design.
8. Cool the Pretzels: Allow the pretzel rods to cool at room temperature until the chocolate is completely set (about 30 minutes).
9. Store or Serve: Once set, you can serve them directly or store them in an airtight container for freshness.
Creating these festive treats is not only easy but also adds a creative flair to your autumn celebrations!
