Valentine's Chocolate Pretzels
Simple chocolate-filled pretzels with sprinkles for Valentine's Day
Equipment
- Piping Bag A ziploc with a corner trimmed works fine.
- Microwave-safe Bowl
- Rubber Spatula
- Baking Sheet
- Silpat or Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 45 Mini Pretzels More or less, depending on how much chocolate you add to each.
- 6 Oz. Chocolate Chips I like dark chocolate but it's up to you.
Instructions
- Line your baking sheet with paper or a silicone baking mat for easy management.
- In your bowl, melt your chocolate by microwaving it for 30 seconds at a time and stirring in between. You can use a double boiler if you prefer, all you need is to melt the chocolate.
- Wait a couple of minutes for the chocolate to cool a bit, but not harden. Transfer the chocolate to a piping bag (or a Ziploc with the corner trimmed off).
- Arrange pretzels on your baking sheet and start piping in chocolate. I found it best to fill each of the three hole segments and then add a dab in the middle to cover the pretzel.
- Sprinkle your decorations on the chocolate before it fully hardens to ensure they stick, then transfer the sheet to the fridge to chill and set the chocolate.
