Candy Cane Pretzels

I have been playing in the kitchen a little bit. In my opinion- almost anything can be improved upon if it’s dipped in chocolate. I mean, you say the words “chocolate dipped…” & you have my full attention. I especially love the holiday season because it gives me the creative push I need to make some really fun ideas- almost all of which involve chocolate in some way. So I decided to take some large pretzel sticks & give them a little gourmet feel by decorating them.

Candy Cane Pretzels

These were so much fun to make.

Quick little snack – my kids LOVE them.

Make sure to leave a little part of the pretzel without chocolate so you have a place to hold it.

Ingredients

  

• 1/2 bag White Chocolate Candy Melts
• 1/4 cup Red Chocolate Candy Melts
• 1/2 tsp Peppermint Extract
• 8-10 Large Pretzel Sticks

Instructions

• Prepare a large baking sheet lined with parchment.
• Lay out your pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.
• In a small glass bowl add your white candy melts
• Microwave on high 1-2 minutes- stirring every 30 seconds (do not over heat)
• Once the chocolate is liquified - add in peppermint extract & stir well to incorporate.
• Take your pretzel & hold it over your bowl & spoon the chocolate over the pretzel to coat
• Place back on parchment lined baking sheet & continue with remaining pretzels
• In another small bowl melt your red chocolate candy melts the same way you did the white.
• Once liquified- transfer to piping bag with small round tip
• Pipe lines over pretzels in a drizzle pattern. This does not have to be precise at all - get creative
• Allow to cool & harden for about 1 hour before serving or packaging.
