Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 12 mini pretzel twists
- 1/2 cup green candy melts
- 12 red heart sprinkles (edible)
Instructions
- Prepare baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Melt candy melts: In a microwave-safe bowl, gently heat the green candy melts according to package instructions, stirring frequently until smooth and fully melted.
- Dip pretzels: Using a fork, dip each mini pretzel twist into the melted green candy melts, allowing excess coating to drip back into the bowl before placing each on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add sprinkles: Before the coating sets, carefully press one red heart sprinkle onto one side of each coated pretzel to create the festive decoration.
- Let set: Allow the pretzels to sit at room temperature until the candy coating hardens, or refrigerate the baking sheet for about 10 minutes to speed up the process.
- Store: Once the coating is firm, transfer the pretzels to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to one week.
Notes
- If green candy melts are unavailable, green-colored white chocolate chips can be substituted but may require additional stirring to smooth.
- To ensure even coating, use a fork or dipping tool to avoid sticky fingers.
- Allow pretzels to fully harden before stacking to prevent sticking together.
- These treats can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature; refrigeration can cause condensation and affect texture.
- For a different look, try using different colored candy melts or sprinkles based on the holiday theme.
