These easy chocolate covered pretzels are healthy and make great gifts! I like to add them to a gift bag, tie with a string and give away as gifts.
You have the option to add white chocolate drizzle, just make sure to wash out the bowl well before melting, otherwise it won't be "white" anymore.
Special Tip: A stickler for all-natural ingredients, I use all-natural pretzels here. And I have attached a link for you. You can use any pretzels you like (including any size).

Ingredients
 
 

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.
