Description
A festive and colorful treat perfect for patriotic celebrations, these Patriotic Pretzel Bites are easy to make and delightful to eat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups pretzel bites
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup red candy melts
- 1 cup blue candy melts
- Sprinkles (red, white, and blue)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Dip half of each pretzel bite into the melted white chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the dipped pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.
- In separate bowls, melt the red and blue candy melts using the same method as the white chocolate.
- Drizzle the melted red and blue candy melts over the white chocolate-dipped pretzels using a fork or a piping bag for more control.
- While the candy melts are still wet, sprinkle the red, white, and blue sprinkles on top for decoration.
- Allow the pretzels to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until the candy coating hardens. For quicker setting, place them in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Notes
- For a fun twist, try using different colored candy melts to match other holidays or themes.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to the top of each pretzel before the candy coating sets for a sweet and salty flavor combination.
