Dave is going to a potluck Christmas Party today and didn't want to take anything because "they always have SO much food"...but I worry that makes him look like a loser guy whose wife didn't send anything hahahah - so I made him easy dipped pretzel rods and wrapped them in pretty bags so people can just take them home if there is too much food and they don't want to eat them right away. Super easy, a tiny bit time consuming only because when you dip them in the chocolate it takes a minute to shake all the excess chocolate off - if you leave too much on then it pools weird after setting up.
I didn't take pictures as I was making them, really you don't need any. Simply melt white, semi-sweet, or dark chocolate; dip about 3/4 of a pretzel rod in it (use a spoon or knife to help with the coating) and shake off until pretty smooth; then immediately sprinkle on whatever you want - I used some Christmas sprinkles, little red balls, green and red sugar...all of it looks good so just use your judgement. You can mix things together, or stripe the sugars, roll them in the toppings or just sprinkle on.
Love! They will be a hit. Everyone loves these. There is something to be said with something salty and sweet! Right? Yum! Nice job.
