Ingredients
- 20 all-natural pretzel rods
- ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
Optional White Chocolate Drizzle:
- ¼ cup white chocolate chips
- ½ teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Set up a double boiler: Add some water to a small pot, place a heat safe bowl over the top of the pot so that it seals but does not touch water.
- Cover a plate with parchment paper, set aside.
- Bring the water to a boil, then add the chocolate and coconut oil to the bowl. Mix the chocolate as it melts.
- Once the chocolate is completely melted, dip the pretzels into the chocolate covering 3/4 of the pretzels. Spoon over as needed.
- Place the pretzels onto the parchment paper lined plate as you work.
- Once all your pretzels are covered in chocolate, move them to the fridge to set for an hour.
Add White Chocolate Drizzle:
- If you want to add a white chocolate drizzle, wait until the chocolate is completely set for an hour in the fridge.
- Set up the double boiler again and melt the white chocolate just as you melted the dark chocolate.
- Use a spoon to drizzle the white chocolate over the chocolate covered pretzels.
- Add back to the fridge to set for 30-60 minutes.
