Ingredients

Scale

Pretzels

  • 24 pretzel rods

Coating

  • 2 cups white candy melts

Decoration

  • ¼ cup fall nonpareil sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Melt Candy Melts: Place the white candy melts in a double boiler and gently melt them while stirring occasionally to ensure a smooth and even consistency without burning.
  2. Prepare Work Area: Line a baking tray or sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and set a wide plate with the fall nonpareil sprinkles, making sure the plate is long enough to accommodate the pretzel rods for rolling.
  3. Dip Pretzel Rods: Pour the melted chocolate into a tall mug or heat-proof tall and thin glass for easier dipping. One by one, dip each pretzel rod into the melted chocolate, coating it evenly.
  4. Roll in Sprinkles: Immediately after dipping, roll the chocolate-covered pretzel rod on the plate of sprinkles to coat with nonpareils, then place it on the lined baking tray.
  5. Set the Chocolate: Repeat the dipping and rolling process for all pretzel rods. Once done, place the tray in the refrigerator and let the chocolate set completely, which will take about 10-15 minutes.
  6. Store and Serve: After the chocolate has hardened, transfer the pretzel rods to an airtight container to keep them fresh until serving. Enjoy your delicious, festive treats!
