Chocolate Covered Pretzel Rods Holiday Gift

You will just need a few items to create these fun treats!

1. Begin by prepping a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.

2. Pour 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips into a microwave safe dish (or Pyrex measuring cup), melt chips on high for 45 seconds. Remove the container of melted chocolate from the microwave then mix well. If all of the chips are not melted heat for an additional 15-30 seconds.

3. Dip one pretzel rod at a time into the melted chocolate. Spin or swirl the rod to cover all sides, then top with sprinkles before placing the Chocolate Pretzel Rod on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Follow steps two and three to create the other flavor of chocolate covered pretzel rods before placing the pan of festive sweet and salty treats in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Now, let’s create a gift out of these pretty pretzels!

Supplies needed:

Gently place Chocolate Covered Pretzel Rods into the glass jar.
Wrap a piece of ribbon or raffia around the lid of the jar then create a bow. Beautiful!

I leave you with another sweet treat that can be made into a gift along with a handmade ornament that looks just as fabulous hanging on the Christmas tree as it does adorning the top of a wrapped gift. And by the way, if you are still in search of the perfect gift I highly recommend the gifts listed in my gift guides for him and for her ~ TrishSutton.com.

See you in the new year. Cheers! ~ Trish
