Instructions
Making these Patriotic Pretzels is an enjoyable process! Just follow these steps for success:
1. Prepare the Workspace: Gather all ingredients. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
3. Dip Pretzels: Dip each pretzel rod halfway into the melted white chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
4. Add Sprinkles: While the chocolate is still wet, generously sprinkle red and blue sprinkles over the dipped part of the pretzel.
5. Chill: Place the decorated pretzels on the lined baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 30 minutes.
6. Melt Milk Chocolate: In a separate bowl, melt the milk chocolate chips using the same microwave method as the white chocolate.
7. Drizzle Milk Chocolate: Once hard, drizzle melted milk chocolate over the pretzels for added sweetness.
8. Final Touch: If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the chocolate drizzle before it sets.
9. Chill Again: Place the pretzels back in the refrigerator until the milk chocolate is solid.
10. Serve: Once set, your Patriotic Pretzels are ready to be enjoyed. Arrange them on a festive platter!
