These chocolate covered pretzels are sweet, salty, and 1000% delicious! My girls and I decided to make these bright and colorful for spring, but you could make them festive for any holiday or occasion by changing out the sprinkles or using colored candy melts.

Ingredients:
- pretzel rods
- chocolate chips/bars or candy melts (like these)
- sprinkles or other toppings
- wax paper
- *optional* a tall glass/container to put the melted chocolate in, to make dipping easier
Directions:
- melt the chocolate or candy melts
- pour the melted chocolate into a tall glass or mason jar to make dipping easier
- dip a pretzel rod into the melted chocolate
- lay the chocolate covered pretzels on a piece of wax paper
- decorate with sprinkles, colored sugar, candies, nuts, etc
- leave the chocolate covered pretzels out until the chocolate has time to set up
If you have little ones, this is the perfect sweet treat for them to help you make. I received a lot of “help” from my girls with these. Sure, their help resulted in some less than perfect chocolate covered pretzels, but they still turned out cute, they taste delicious, and we had a blast. I’d call that a win!
Once the chocolate has hardened, you can store the pretzels in an airtight bag, and they should last about 2-3 weeks. If you don’t store them in an airtight container/bag they will become stale.
These make a cute and yummy gift for anyone. Just stick a few in a little treat bag, and tie with a cute ribbon!
