Dipped Pretzel Rods
 
Crazy fun dipping pretzels and even better to eat the sweet and salty treat!
Ingredients
  • 8 oz (1 cup) Semi-Sweet Chocolate, Milk Chocolate or White Chocolate Morsels
  • 4 chunks (8 oz) Chocolate Almond Bark
  • 16 pretzel rods or 32 stick pretzels
  • Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
  1. LINE baking sheet with wax paper.
  2. MICROWAVE 1 cup morsels and chocolate almond bark in small, dry, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 1 minute; STIR. The morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted.
  3. DIP pretzel rods about 3 inches into melted morsels, tilting bowl to easily dip. Use side of bowl to remove excess. Sprinkle with morsels or sprinkles. Place on prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until set. Store in airtight container at room temperature. Best when eaten within a few days.
Notes
TIPS:
• Pretzels may be dipped and drizzled in any variety of melted morsels for different looks. For example, dip them in semi-sweet chocolate and drizzle them with melted white morsels. Or dip them in milk chocolate and drizzle them with melted semi-sweet chocolate.
• Above recipe can easily be doubled, but it is not recommended microwaving more than 2 cups of morsels at one time.
