White Chocolate Pretzel Ducks for Easter
Just a fun little way of turning pretzels and chocolate into seasonal ducklings for Easter fun.
Equipment
- Piping Bag
- Double Boiler
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper Or silicone baking mat
- Rubber Spatula
Ingredients
- ½ Cup White Chocolate Chips
- 2 Tsp Coconut Oil
- 1 Dab Yellow Food Coloring Gel Get a type without water in it.
- ¼ Tsp Flavor Extract I used orange and strawberry for different batches. This is optional if you just want white chocolate.
- 15-30 Mini Pretzels How many you use depends on how much chocolate you put in each.
- Reese's Pieces and Sprinkles For decoration.
Instructions
- Set up a piping bag so it's ready to go as soon as your chocolate is ready.
- Cut your Reese's Pieces in half so you have half-circles for beaks.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and arrange your pretzels on it (see the image above for orientation to make ducks.)
- Set up your double boiler over medium-low heat. Add your chocolate, and stir as it melts, pulling on and off the heat to avoid overheating it.
- Once your chocolate is melted, mix in the food coloring and any extract you want to flavor it. Adjust for color and flavor to your tastes.
- Pour your white chocolate into your piping bag and pipe dabs of chocolate in the pretzels to make the duck body.
- Place your cut candy and sprinkles to make beaks and eyes.
- Let your chocolate set, or stick it in the fridge or freezer to speed up setting. Enjoy!
