Description

These festive Christmas Pretzels are a delightful holiday treat featuring crunchy mini pretzels dipped in smooth white chocolate and topped with colorful holiday sprinkles. Easy to make and perfect for parties or gift-giving, this simple recipe is sure to bring joy to any celebration.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 package white chocolate baking chips (approximately 12 ounces)
  • 1 package mini pretzel twists (approximately 12 ounces)
  • Holiday sprinkles (as desired for decoration)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper to prevent the chocolate from sticking once the pretzels are dipped.
  2. Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate baking chips using your preferred method. For microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Alternatively, melt gently over a double boiler on the stovetop, stirring frequently until fully melted.
  3. Dip Pretzels: Remove the melted chocolate from heat. Dip one half of each mini pretzel twist into the white chocolate, ensuring an even coating, then place the dipped pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Add Sprinkles: Immediately sprinkle holiday-themed sprinkles over the chocolate-coated side of each pretzel to add a festive touch before the chocolate sets.

Notes

  • Use high-quality white chocolate for best texture and flavor.
  • If the chocolate becomes too thick, gently reheat it to maintain a smooth consistency for dipping.
  • Allow dipped pretzels to set at room temperature or refrigerate briefly for quicker hardening.
  • These pretzels can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week.
  • Make sure sprinkles are added right after dipping as the chocolate hardens quickly.
