Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Mini pretzels
- 300 grams White chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable shortening (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- 50 grams Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
- 1 sheet Parchment paper
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips. If using vegetable shortening, add it to the bowl as well.
Microwave the chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. This process should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
Dip each mini pretzel into the melted white chocolate, using a fork or dipping tool to coat it completely. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the pretzel onto the lined baking sheet.
If desired, sprinkle decorative sprinkles over the chocolate-covered pretzels while the chocolate is still wet.
Repeat the process for the remaining pretzels, reheating the chocolate briefly if it begins to harden.
Allow the chocolate-covered pretzels to cool and harden completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Alternatively, refrigerate them for 15 minutes to speed up the process.
Once the chocolate has fully set, transfer the pretzels to an airtight container for storage. They can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 week.
