Ingredients for Valentine pretzel knot
Originally I was going to make Valentine pretzel rods like these that I made last year.
When I went to the grocery store to buy some NO ONE had any on the shelves! I went to 5 grocery stores and finally found some at the dollar store. The only problem was that most were broken 🙁 Sheesh what is the deal with pretzel rods??
Plan B
So…. while at Walmart I saw these thick pretzel knots and decided to go with plan B.
I actually think I like the way these turned out even cuter.
(ignore the broken pieces in this bag. I just put all the leftovers in there)
Ingredient list
Snyders of Hanover Olde Thyme pretzels
Wilton candy melts in bright pink
Wh ite candy melts in bright white
Pink and white sprinkles
Small ziplock bags (for melted chocolate)
Parchment paper
Melting the candy melts
I love how easy it is to make these darling Valentine treats! Microwaving the candy melts is fast!
Using half power and microwaving for a few minutes at a time they begin to melt.
Stirring after each melt time and soon you have beautiful melted chocolate candy.
Dipping pretzels into melted candy melts
I only wanted to dip half the pretzel in white candy melts and drizzle the other side with pink candy melts.
Once I dipped each pretzel in the white candy melts, I would place it on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper to set up.
At this point you can sprinkle some sprinkles on the white side if desired.
Once all the pretzels were dipped I would put the whole cookie sheet in fridge to harden.
Drizzling the melted candy melts
After microwaving the pink melts, I pour the melted candy melts into a small plastic zip lock bag.
Tip- Open ziplock bag and place inside a tall glass. Make sure you overlap the edges of the bag over the sides of the glass. This will give you a large opening to pour the melted candy into.
Then press out all the air.
When you are ready, snip off a tiny edge of a corner of bag and start drizzling. It does come out very fast and it is a little loosey goosey to maneuver at first but then you see how fast it goes and you are done in minutes.
Add more sprinkles to the drizzled side of the pretzel
The almost take on the look of Valentine hearts when you are done! Once you are done with the drizzled candy and sprinkles, put them in the fridge to harden up again.
It only takes a few minutes.
Valentine pretzel knots in cello bags
This is such a cute way to wrap up your little Valentine treats. Use cello bags and tie with a little ribbon. I made all these for the Young Women in my church.
Such the perfect Valentine’s snack for adults. You can bring them to work! Everyone will love you! 😉
One per person in a cute cellophane bag and they will think you slaved over them.
There are so many darling options for cello bags. I got these from Walmart.
You could put multiples of the Valentine Pretzel knots in a cello bag to give to a family.
They just look adorable!
I just love this easy Valentine treat recipe!
