Description

Crispy pretzel rods dipped in silky chocolate, decorated with festive drizzles, sprinkles, and mini gingerbread candies. Quick, fun, and super customizable!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1216 pretzel rods
  • 200 g dark or milk chocolate (melting chocolate or chips)
  • 150 g white chocolate (for dipping & drizzling)
  • Holiday sprinkles (red, white, pink, green)
  • Mini gingerbread candies or gingerbread men decorations
  • Green candy melts (optional)
  • Red candy melts (optional)
  • Crushed peppermint (optional)
  • Crushed cookies (optional)
  • Caramel drizzle (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt dark/milk chocolate in a microwave (20–30 sec intervals) or double boiler. Melt white chocolate separately. If using red or green candy melts, melt them as well.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip each pretzel rod halfway into melted dark or white chocolate. Shake off excess and place on parchment.
  3. While the chocolate is still wet, add sprinkles, stick on mini gingerbread men, add crushed peppermint, add candy dots or snowflake sprinkles, then drizzle with red melted chocolate, green melted chocolate, extra white chocolate, and extra dark chocolate. Get creative — each rod should look festive!
  4. Allow pretzels to set at room temperature for 15–20 minutes, or refrigerate for 5 minutes until firm.
