Equipment
- Microwave-safe bowls
- Spoon or Fork
- Parchment paper
- Refrigerator
Ingredients
- 1 bag Round Pretzels mini or large
- 1 cup Pink Candy Melts
- 1 cup Red Candy Melts
- 1 cup White Candy Melts
- ¼ cup Red and Pink Sprinkles or sprinkles of your choice
Instructions
- Melt the Candy: Place the pink, red, and white candy melts into separate microwave-safe bowls. Heat each one in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.
- Dip the Pretzels: Take each pretzel and dip it halfway into the melted candy. Tap the fork on the side of the bowl to remove any excess candy.
- Decorate: Before the candy hardens, sprinkle the dipped pretzels with your red and pink sprinkles or any other decorations.
- Chill: Place the decorated pretzels on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until the candy has completely hardened.
Notes
You can substitute candy melts with chocolate chips if preferred. Just ensure to melt them carefully to avoid burning.
If you’re using large pretzels, you may need to dip them in stages for even coverage.
Add a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate for a sweet and salty contrast.
Store the pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for 7-10 days.
