Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Pretzel rods or twists
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups White chocolate chips (optional)
- 2 teaspoons Coconut oil or vegetable shortening
- 0.5 cups Sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed candies (optional)
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable shortening. Microwave the bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
If using white chocolate for decoration, melt the white chocolate chips with the remaining 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in a separate bowl using the same microwave method.
Dip each pretzel rod or twist halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
If desired, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the dark chocolate-coated pretzels or sprinkle toppings such as sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed candies while the chocolate is still wet.
Refrigerate the pretzels for 20-30 minutes or until the chocolate fully hardens.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
