These Yogurt Covered Pretzels are a cute and low-fat sweet treat. I like to serve them as a fun snack at parties and for the holidays. Though they are pretty in pink, they can be made in any color.

Pink Yogurt Covered Pretzels

I find that nothing is more snackable than yogurt-covered pretzels. I make them pink and add sprinkles for a fun, cute, and delicious sweet treat for Valentine’s Day, but you can change up the color to match any occasion.

These pretzels are perfect for kids and adults. Kids will flock to this little sweet treat, so I love serving them at parties. Sometimes I’ll use red and green food dye at Christmas, or match our favorite team’s colors for game day events.

Equipment

  • Kitchen Scale (optional)
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients 

  • 1 cup white yogurt chips 170 grams (or white chocolate chips)
  • pink gel food coloring
  • 12 oz. mini pretzels 340 grams (1 bag), heart-shaped (such as Rold Gold Heartzels) or regular-shaped
  • ¼ cup pink and white sprinkles 48 grams

Instructions 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Place the yogurt chips in a heat-proof small bowl and melt on HIGH in the microwave at 10-second intervals, stirring every 10 seconds, until all are almost melted. Stir well and set aside until all are melted.

  • Hold a pretzel at the top of one side, and dip the pretzel into the melted yogurt at an angle. Shake off excess melted yogurt and place pretzel on parchment-covered tray. (If the yogurt begins to set, reheat in the microwave 5-10 seconds.)
    12 oz. mini pretzels
  • Sprinkle the pretzels with colored sprinkles while the melted yogurt is still soft and the sprinkles will attach.
    ¼ cup pink and white sprinkles
  • Set dipped pretzels aside until melted yogurt has set, approximately 30 minutes at room temperature (or 10 minutes in the refrigerator).

Becky’s Tips

  • Use food coloring gel instead of liquid. It will give you better color. The liquid kind doesn’t work as well when mixed with melted yogurt or chocolate.
  • If the yogurt cools too much while you’re dipping the pretzels, just stick it back in the microwave for another 10 seconds.

Serving Suggestions

When we’ve got the gang coming over for a game day celebration, I like to offer a few things for everyone to nibble on. Along with the pretzels, I’ll prepare crockpot queso to satisfy my cheese addiction, with vegetable sticks and homemade tortilla chips. If we’re feeling particularly hungry, I’ll whip up some air fryer chicken wings.

If you keep them in an airtight container they will be good for about 2 weeks. Longer than that and they will lose some of their crisp. Hope you love them, thanks for stopping by!

I stumbled upon this recipe and wanted to try these out for a fundraiser but I have no idea where to get these yogurt chips! Where did you purchase them? And is there an easy cheap alternative for the coating? Thanks for sharing!

You can also use white chocolate and then gel food coloring (water based won’t work and will seize up the chocolate). We got our yogurt chips on amazon I believe. Hope that helps!
