• pour the chocolate melts from one of the bags into one of your microwave proof bowls 
• Melt chocolate according to the package directions 
• *I like to put the chocolate into the microwave for 1 minute – stir until smooth and if needed, pop it back in for 30 more seconds – stir until smooth
• Place down sheets of wax paper for your chocolate to set up 

• One at a time, dip about 20 of the pretzels from the bag into the melted chocolate

• Use your fork to scoop the pretzel out – tapping any excess chocolate off of the pretzel
• Transfer the chocolate covered pretzel onto a sheet of wax paper
• Do not use all of the chocolate in the bowl. Leave some for decorating
• Continue until you have dipped all 20 pretzels
• Repeat with each color of chocolate

• If needed, place the remaining chocolate into the microwave to melt it again

• Insert a fork into the chocolate, hover over the chocolate pretzels while waving the fork back and forth to decorate them
• Do the same thing for each color until all of the pretzels have contrasting chocolate colors
• Let the chocolate dry

 

Care and Storing your chocolate covered pretzels…

• Chocolate covered pretzels should be stored in an airtight container in a cool place, but not in the refrigerator
• When serving, keep pretzels out of extreme heat, so the chocolate will not melt
