Description

A delightful, easy-to-make holiday treat featuring crunchy pretzels coated in smooth white chocolate and crushed peppermint candy.


Ingredients

Scale

12 oz good quality white chocolate (bars or chips)
14 oz bag mini pretzel twists or pretzel rods
1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy (about 8-10 candy canes)


Instructions

Step 1: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
Step 2: Crush the peppermint candy. Place candy canes or peppermint discs in a Ziploc bag and use a rolling pin or heavy pan to crush them into small pieces. Set aside.
Step 3: Melt the white chocolate. You can do this using a double boiler or in the microwave. For the microwave, place white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until smooth and fully melted. Be careful not to overheat.
Step 4: Dip the pretzels. Dip each pretzel (or about half of a pretzel rod) into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off.
Step 5: Sprinkle with peppermint. Immediately place the chocolate-coated pretzel onto the prepared baking sheet and generously sprinkle with the crushed peppermint candy. Repeat with the remaining pretzels.
Step 6: Chill to set. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until the white chocolate is completely set and firm. Once set, transfer to an airtight container.

Notes

For best results, use a high-quality white chocolate that melts smoothly. If the chocolate becomes too thick while working, gently reheat it for a few seconds. Experiment with different colors of sprinkles for other occasions!
