Preparation
  1. Melt the Chocolate: Start by melting your chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler. Heat it in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until it’s smooth and silky.
  2. Dip Each Pretzel Rod: Grab a pretzel rod and dip it into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it evenly. Let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
  3. Set on Parchment Paper: Carefully place the dipped pretzel rods on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Add Your Toppings: While the chocolate is still melty, sprinkle on your sprinkles or any other toppings you’re using.
  5. Let Them Set: Allow your pretzel rods to sit at room temperature or pop them into the fridge for about 10 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.

Notes

Use quality chocolate for the best flavor. Experiment with your toppings for a variety of flavors. Store these pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week.
