Ingredients
- Pretzel sticks – 10 ounces
- Milk chocolate chips – 12 ounces
- White chocolate chips – ½ cup
- Candy sprinkles
- Chocolate candies
- Mini Reese’s pieces
- Chopped peanuts
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
- Place the milk chocolate chips in a double boiler, seal it and turn on the burner.
- You can replace double boiler with microwave oven.
- Wait for few minutes until milk chocolate chips start melting.
- Let the chocolate chips melt completely and form a smooth mixture.
- Do not forget to stir the melting chocolate constantly during the melting process in order to avoid burning.

- Now, hold the pretzel rods from one end and dip the other end about ⅔ of the way up in the melted chocolate coating.
- Hold the coated pretzel rods vertically over the boiler for few seconds, letting the excess of chocolate drip off.
- Lay the coated pretzel rods in the pre-lined baking sheet, keeping reasonable distance in between.
- Set the coated pretzels on the baking sheet aside for few minutes, but not completely dry.
- Take advantage of the available time and prepare white chocolate in a bowl and melt in a microwave oven.
- Remove the bowl of melted white chocolate from oven and set aside for few seconds.
- Now, take a white chocolate coating and drizzle over the coated pretzels, gently swishing the fork back and forth without touching the pretzel rods.
- Immediately place the candies or sprinkles on disposable paper plate and roll the coated pretzel rods in it.
- Make sure to coat the rods from all sides.
- Lay the pretzel rods back on the lined baking sheet and refrigerate to cool.
- Remove the baking sheet from refrigerator once the pretzel rods are cooled well.
- Pick up the Halloween chocolate dipped pretzel rods one by one and arrange on a large serving platter or in a beautiful glass jar or mug.
- Serve and enjoy Halloween.
