Instructions
Making Firecracker Pretzel Rods is easier than you might think! Follow these simple steps to achieve a stunning and tasty result:
1. Melt the Chocolate: In separate bowls, melt the white chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips. If needed, add coconut oil to achieve a smoother consistency.
2. Dip the Pretzel Rods: Take each pretzel rod and dip the bottom half into the melted white chocolate. Ensure that it’s evenly coated.
3. Add Sprinkles: Before the chocolate sets, gently dip or roll the coated part in the assortment of sprinkles. This gives it a vibrant look.
4. Create a Marvelous Contrast: Repeat the process, dipping the top half of the pretzel rod into the melted milk chocolate.
5. Finish with Sprinkles: As with the white chocolate, coat the milk chocolate side in sprinkles while it’s still wet.
6. Set the Rods Aside: Place the completed pretzel rods on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool and set.
7. Sprinkle Sea Salt: If you enjoy a hint of savory flavor, lightly sprinkle sea salt on the chocolate for an extra taste contrast.
8. Allow to Set: Let the pretzel rods cool for at least 30-60 minutes at room temperature until the chocolate hardens. You can also refrigerate them to speed up the process.
9. Store or Serve: Once set, you can serve them immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
With these simple steps, you can play with the flavors and colors to your heart’s content. Firecracker Pretzel Rods are sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
