Chocolate Covered Pretzels. Two amazing ingredients paired together to create a tasty salty-sweet combination..

Let’s be honest, anything with chocolate already tips the scales toward perfection. You can’t go wrong with this delicious (and dangerously good) combination.

How to Make Chocolate Covered Pretzels

You will want to create a double boiler (boiling water in a pan and then a glass bowl on top) to melt your chocolate. This is the most effective way of making chocolate. I’ve found when microwaving if you give it too much time your chocolate will stiffen up … and it is a lost cause at that point. So whenever I make chocolate, a double boiler system it is!
Dip your favorite pretzels into the melted chocolate.
Place onto parchment paper and decorate how you see fit! See our video into the recipe card to see the 4 different ways to decorate them!

how to melt your chocolate with a double boiler system:

Take a small saucepan and a fill halfway with water. Bring water to a boil. Turn heat down to low.
Take a glass bowl and place directly over the saucepan.
Add chocolate chips into glass bowl and whisk together until everything is melted and chocolate is smooth.
