These pretzels are a fun little treat to make that always remind me of Spring. I was inspired to make these as a little treat for Easter, and picked bright colours. I'm sure someone with much more patience than I could have made perfect drizzles, but I'm blaming their perfect imperfection on my four year old, who helped every step of the way. I dipped the pretzels in white candy melt, but you can buy them pre-dipped and shorten the entire process.
Ingredients
The quantity of candy melt is assuming you are going to dip the whole bag. If you just want to try few, buy a smaller amount of candy melts and just do as many as you can.
1 bag Glutino gluten free pretzels (they're the only brand I'm familiar with, and I love them)
*** I buy regular ones, but if you don't want to dip, buy the dipped ones)
1 scoop white candy melts or white chocolate (approx. 200 g)
1/4 scoop of different coloured candy melts (approx. 50g each)
Directions
1- Melt the white candy melts in a glass bowl in the microwave. I melt on high, in 30 second increments, stirring each time.
2- Lay out a piece of waxed paper large enough to hold the pretzels.
3- Using a spoon (or let's be honest, with a 4 year old, your hands) dip each pretzel in the melted chocolate. Let the excess drip before placing on the wax paper to dry.
4- When the coating has hardened, melt the coloured melts the same way. Using the tines of a fork or a spoon, drizzle the coloured melts over the pretzels. Let harden and serve, or store in the refrigerator.
So cute, and you can customize the colours the way you want. A great sweet & salty snack to make the day just a little brighter.
