Learn how to make Chocolate Covered Pretzels at home with ease! Use this recipe to save money and time while preparing the perfect sweet-dipped treats. These pretzels are perfect for holidays, parties or to have on hand for snacking.
In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave on high. Start with 1 minute in the microwave, then remove the bowl and stir the chocolate well. If the chocolate still isn’t melted, continue heating and stirring in 30-second intervals until chocolate is completely melted.
8 ounces semisweet Baker’s chocolate
Dip the pretzels, one at a time, into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to dip each pretzel into the chocolate and lightly tap the fork on side of the bowl to shake off the excess chocolate. You can also use a toothpick to remove any excess chocolate from the holes of the pretzels.
3 cups mini pretzels
Place each dipped pretzel on the lined baking sheet and sprinkle with desired toppings. Repeat steps with remaining pretzels.
Sprinkles
Once all pretzels are coated, place the baking sheet of pretzels into the refrigerator for about 15 minutes so chocolate hardens and sets.
