chocolate-covered pretzel sticks with sprinkles
Use the highest quality chocolate you can find. It’ll be the main flavor so try to get something rich and wonderful. We used 1 cup and had SO MUCH CHOCOLATE. I’ve reduced the quantity below, which would easily create 40 small pretzel sticks or 20 large.
- Yield: 40 small pretzels 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or broken chocolate
- 1 teaspoon butter
- pretzels (use large sticks, small sticks or regular shaped pretzels)
- sprinkles
- baking sheet lined with parchment paper
Instructions
- Put the chocolate and butter together in a microwave safe container. We used a deep measuring cup to dip the ends in. Alternatively, use a shallow bowl to roll the ends of your pretzels in and you’ll get more chocolate on further up. Microwave for 30 second intervals until the butter has melted and the chocolate is soft. Stir.
- Have a bowl underneath your sprinkles so you can catch excess; consider a bowl for each type of sprinkles so you can pour those that spill back into the jar and re-use.
- Arrange a baking sheet lined with parchment next to your sprinkles, pretzels and chocolate. Make an assembly line.
- Dip a pretzel into the chocolate, let excess drip off then wipe one side against the bowl so it’s flat.
- Hold the pretzel over the bowl and either pour the sprinkles or use a spoon to ladle them on.
- Set on the baking sheet.
- Allow to set in fridge, for 20 minutes. To store, keep in an air-tight container in fridge.
