Instructions for: Chocolate Covered Pretzel Valentine Owls – A Simple and Fun Treat for Kids 

Do one pretzel at a time…

  • Place your wax paper down on your work surface 
  • Place your pretzels upside down on the wax paper
  • Set out the eyes and hearts for the beak
  • Melt the chocolate melts in a glass microwave proof bowl. I like to pop them into the microwave for 1 minute – pull them out – stir, and if needed…pop them back in for 30 more seconds and stir

  • *If needed – you can use a toothpick to smooth the chocolate out
