Ingredients
  

  • 50 mini pretzels
  • 1 8- ounce package of white candy melts
  • 1/3 cup each of blue and red candy melts
  • Red white, and blue sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • First, melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl on high for 30-second intervals, stirring in between until it has melted.
  • Dip the pretzels in the white chocolate, making sure that they are fully coated. Place them on parchment paper to cool and let the chocolate set.
  • Melt the red and blue candy melts in separate microwave-safe bowls using the same 30-second method, stirring in between until they have melted.
  • Once melted, pour both the red and blue candy melts into separate piping bags. Snip off the tip of the piping bag to create a small hole.
  • Create your own unique designs by drizzling the red and blue candy melts over the cooled pretzels.
  • Let the candy melts cool and set on the pretzels, then serve and enjoy!

Notes

Tips:
  • You can use any type of pretzel for this recipe, whether it’s twists, sticks, or rods.
  • For a twist on the classic recipe, try using dark chocolate instead of white chocolate.
  • To save time, use store-bought white chocolate chips or candy melts instead of melting the chocolate from scratch.
  • Get creative with your designs! You can use different piping tips or toothpicks to create unique patterns and designs.
  • If you want to add some extra pizzazz, try adding some edible glitter to your pretzels.
