A quick and easy treat to give out at the holidays, or any time of year

Featured in Blog Post

Difficulty: Easy

Servings: 8

Prep Time: 15 minutes   Cook Time: 3 minutes per tray  

Ingredients

Square Pretzels: the shape I buy are called “snaps.”

Melting Chocolate: I buy mine from a cake/hobby shop. They are the little chocolate wafers about the size of a penny. I prefer to use dark chocolate or semi-sweet.

Candy covered chocolates: I try to buy the holiday bags of these for the festive colors, plus then I know they’re more fresh than the regular bags.

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.

Place a single layer of pretzels on your baking sheet. Top each pretzel with a chocolate wafer.

Bake the pretzels until the chocolate is just barely melted, about 3 minutes. You want it to be shiny, and just starting to lose its shape.

Take the pretzels out of the oven, and top each one with a chocolate candy.

Let cool until the chocolate has hardened back up and enjoy!
