DIY Yummy Chocolate Covered Pretzels

This time of year, it’s all about the treats! There’s candy for Halloween, fall baking, and then Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love a packet of gummy bears and a mini Snickers bar just as much as the next person but there’s something about making your own treats that can make the season feel extra special. Chocolate-covered pretzels are so delicious and easy to make at home and today I wanted to share with you my method. I’m also adding a little something extra to make it special for the season!

DIY Yummy Chocolate Covered Pretzels

Supplies:

Pretzels
Dark Chocolate Chips or whatever kind of chocolate chip you like
Festive Sprinkles
Metal bowl and pot with water to create a double boiler or…
A microwavable bowl
Silicone spatula
Fork
Parchment paper
Baking sheet

Method:

Prepare your double boiler by bringing your water to the boil and placing your metal or heatproof bowl over the top. Add your chocolate chips and stir until melted.
Once the chocolate is melted, begin dipping your pretzels in the chocolate until fully coated. I find a fork works great for handling the pretzel. Once fully coated place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and decorate with your festive sprinkles! Repeat until the chocolate is used up!
Wait for the chocolate to harden before enjoying your pretzels for at least an hour! You can pop them in the fridge to harden faster as well.
