INGREDIENTS FOR HANUKKAH WHITE CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZELS

To make this tasty Hanukkah dessert recipe, all you need is pretzels, chocolate, and sprinkles. And in the end, you get a tasty treat that’s perfect for a Hanukkah candy board, snacks, dessert, parties, and even homemade gifts.

• 1 white chocolate bar, or 1/2 1 cup chips)- I use Baker’s Premium White Chocolate Bar and chop it up before melting
• 1 (16-oz.) bag mini or regular-sized pretzel twists
• Blue sugar sprinkles
• Silver sugar sprinkles

INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE CHOCOLATE OCVERED HANUKKAH PRETZELS

Step One: Prep

• Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Pour the blue sprinkles in one bowl and the silver sprinkles in another bowl.

Step Two: Melt Chocolate

• Melt the chocolate according to the instructions on the packaging. I like to use my Wilton Candy Pot – as opposed to the microwave or double boiler. It makes it SO much easier and it keeps the chocolate from setting while you are dipping.

Step Two: Dip and Sprinkle

• Dip a pretzel into the melted chocolate, then use a fork to remove the pretzel from the chocolate.
• Gently tap the fork against the sides of the bowl to remove most of the excess chocolate, and then slide the pretzel onto the lined baking sheet (use a second fork or toothpick if needed).
• Immediately add both the blue and the silver sprinkles

Repeat the heating/dipping process with the rest of the pretzels.

Step Three: Let Set

• Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.

WHAT IS THE BEST CHOCOLATE TO USE TO MAKE CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZELS?

When making these Hanukkah White Chocolate Covered Pretzels you can use any chocolate you like – chopped white chocolate, white chocolate chips, almond bark, or candy melts. The only rule is that when buying white chocolate, be sure to check the ingredients and make sure cocoa butter is listed. A lot of white chocolate uses vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter which doesn’t melt very well and won’t work for coating pretzels.

I prefer to use Baker’s Premium White Chocolate Bar as it’s made with milk and cocoa butter. It has a silky-smooth texture and a great taste. Plus, it melts easily and is a cinch to break apart.

HOW LONG DO CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZELS LAST?

These Hanukkah White Chocolate Covered Pretzels will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Even after that they don’t really go “bad”, the pretzels just start to dry out and have a stale taste.

OTHER WAYS TO DECORATE CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZELS

There are lots of ways you can get creative with chocolate covered pretzels. Here are a few I’ve tried:

• use rods or sticks instead of twists
• add stripes to your pretzels by melting some dark chocolate and adding it to a plastic squeeze bottle. Drizzle the chocolate across the pretzel and immediately add sprinkles (or skip the sprinkles).
• decorate them with other types of sprinkles, coconut flakes or chopped nuts.
