Description
Easy Halloween-themed chocolate-dipped pretzel rods decorated with festive sprinkles.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 pretzel rods
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
- Halloween-themed sprinkles
- Orange and black candy melts (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt white chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler.
- Dip each pretzel rod into the melted white chocolate, coating about two-thirds of the rod. Let excess chocolate drip off.
- Place the dipped pretzel rod on the prepared baking sheet.
- Immediately sprinkle with Halloween-themed sprinkles.
- If using candy melts for drizzling, melt them separately according to package directions. Drizzle the melted candy melts over the white chocolate-covered portion of the pretzel rods.
- Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.
Notes
- Ensure your pretzel rods are completely dry before dipping to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
- You can use different colors of candy melts or food coloring to customize the look.
- Store the finished pretzel rods in an airtight container at room temperature.
