How to Make Chocolate Christmas Trees

Instructions

  1. Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate until smooth. Alternately, use the microwave, stirring at 30 second intervals until smooth. Do not overheat. Allow the chocolate to cool a bit before transferring it to a piping bag or plastic storage bag.
  2. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a rimmed baking sheet and line up pretzels with enough room between to make the trees.
  3. Snip a small hole in the piping bag or plastic bag corner, moving back and forth, create trees with a wide base and tapered top.
  4. While tacky, decorate with desired sprinkles.
  5. Allow to set at room temperature (1-2 hours) or chill (15 minutes).
  6. Gently peel the tree off of the parchment and enjoy or use as decorations.
  7. If you've tried this recipe, come back and let us know how it was in the comments or star ratings.

Notes

  • Regular baking chocolate or chocolate can be used, but add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil for every 2 ounces of chocolate.
