Description
Create festive and delicious Chocolate Pretzel Trees easily using almond bark and mini pretzel sticks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 oz Almond bark or candy melts
- 108 pieces Mini pretzel sticks
- Sprinkles Any variety you like
Instructions
- Arrange your pretzel sticks in an arrow formation on a wax paper-lined baking sheet, creating the base of your delightful trees. Make sure they’re close enough to hold together but have space for the chocolate drizzle.
- Melt the almond bark or candy melts in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well, checking for smoothness to achieve that glossy texture we all love.
- Repeat microwaving in 15-second increments until completely melted and smooth, ensuring you stir between each interval. You want it to be nice and pourable!
- Spoon the melted chocolate into a ziplock baggie for easy piping. Cut a small corner of the bag with scissors to create a perfect drizzle tool for your trees.
- Drizzle the melted almond bark over the arranged pretzel trees, starting at the top and making your way down to the bottom. Use a zigzag motion and don’t hesitate to fill in blank spots!
- Sprinkle your mini sugar pearls on top for the finishing touch! Choose a variety of colors to make your Chocolate Pretzel Trees extra festive and fun.
- Allow the trees to set up on the baking sheet for about 20 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm to the touch.
Notes
- Feel free to experiment with different types of sprinkles for a unique look.
- Make sure to keep the melted chocolate warm while working to ensure it remains pourable.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
