Description
Craft beautiful and delicious Traditional Chocolate Pretzel Wreaths that are perfect for holidays and celebrations.
Ingredients
Scale
- 30–40 knot pretzels
- 2 cups chocolate coating or couverture
- Sprinkles, crushed peppermint, or chopped nuts for decoration
- Plastic wrap or foil (for base ring, optional)
- Parchment paper
Instructions
- Gather pretzels and toppings and measure chocolate.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- If using a base ring, wrap it with plastic wrap or foil.
- Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl by microwaving in 20–30 second bursts until smooth.
- Dip pretzels partially or fully, letting excess chocolate drip off. Place on parchment.
- Arrange pretzels in a circle, overlapping slightly if not using a base. Pipe a ring of melted chocolate on the base to glue pretzels if using one.
- Drizzle with contrasting chocolate, then add sprinkles while still tacky.
- Chill briefly to set, then allow to cool at room temperature for best finish.
Notes
Store wreaths in a cool, dry place to avoid humidity affecting the coating. Best consumed within 48 hours for freshness.
