Zhuzhing Up Pretzel Rods
Materials Needed:
- 2 large cookie sheets lined with parchment or silicone mats
- Small sauce pan
- Heatproof mixing bowls
- Spatula
- Spoon
- Tall drinking glass
Ingredients:
- 30 Pretzel Rods (original)
- 12-14 oz dark chocolate
- 2-3 oz of ruby chocolate or white chocolate for drizzling
- Spoon
- 4 oz sprinkles of all kinds
Process:
Line two cookies sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Place a small saucepan filled 1/3 of the way with water over medium-high heat. Break up the chocolate into rough pieces (or pour chocolate chips) into a heatproof mixing bowl and place over the saucepan. Make sure the bowl is not touching the water. Use a spatula to occasionally stir the chocolate as it melts. Once melted, remove from heat and pour chocolate into a tall drinking glass. The tall glass is perfect for dipping the pretzel rods.
Dip each pretzel rod about 3/4 of the way into chocolate and set on lined cookie sheet. If drizzling with other chocolate, go ahead and melt in a separate heatproof bowl and use a spoon to drizzle over dark chocolate layer. Add sprinkles of all shapes and colors. Place in refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours. Can be stored in airtight container at room temperature or, depending on humidity, in refrigerator.
