Ingredients
- 1 cup semi sweet or white chocolate chips or combination
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 48 mini pretzel twists
- ¼ cup Sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave at 30 second intervals.
- Stir chocolate in between each 30 seconds so all of the chips are just about melted. Continue to stir until the last remaining pieces have melted.
- Use a fork to coat each pretzel in the melted chocolate mixture. Then tap it gently against the sides of the bowl until most of the excess chocolate has dripped off.
- Use a second fork or a toothpick to slide each pretzel onto the lined baking sheet. Top each pretzel with sprinkles.
- If you want to drizzle another layer or color of melted chocolate chips on top, scoop the melted chocolate into a quart size freezer re-sealable bag. Snip a very small corner of the bag to make a hole and squeeze the bag to drizzle the chocolate over the pretzels.
- Refrigerate all the pretzels until the chocolate is hard, about 20 minutes. Remove from the pan and store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 10 days.
