Ingredients

  • pretzel rods
  • Colored candy melts or white almond bark with added food coloring
  • Crayon Labels make your own or head to Mandy's site for a big selection

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Break the pretzel rods in half. Don't worry if it's not exact, just do the best you can. Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or tin foil.
  2. Warm candy melts for 1 minute in the microwave. Stir them and melt for additional time if they are not fully melted. You do not want to overcook the chocolate or it will get clumpy! Colored candy melts are easiest but if you can only find white add a little oil based food coloring to the melted white candy melts making sure that the chocolate is not hot or it will clump.
  3. Now dip each end of the pretzel rods into the melted chocolate and place on the cookie sheet to dry. Once the pretzels are dry, print your crayon labels out on colored paper and cut them out. Wrap each pretzel with a crayon wrapper and secure with a piece of scotch tape.
  4. A cute way to package these is in inexpensive pencil boxes.
