Chocolate-coated pretzel thins offer a sweet and salty snack, ideal for holidays, snacking, or sharing with friends.
# What You Need:
→ Pretzel Base
01 - 24 flat salted pretzel thins
→ Chocolate Coating
02 - 7 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped or chips
→ Festive Toppings
03 - 2 tablespoons festive sprinkles
04 - 2 tablespoons crushed peppermint candies
05 - 2 tablespoons chopped roasted nuts such as almonds or pecans
06 - 2 tablespoons flaked sea salt
# Directions:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the dipped pretzels.
02 - Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until thoroughly melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt chocolate over a double boiler set above simmering water.
03 - Hold each pretzel thin and dip halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off for an even coating.
04 - Transfer each dipped pretzel thin onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to prevent sticking.
05 - Immediately sprinkle the wet chocolate surface with chosen toppings such as sprinkles, peppermint, nuts, or sea salt.
06 - Allow pretzels to set at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate for 10 minutes, until chocolate is firm.
07 - Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for gifting or snacking.
