Ingredients

  • 12 pretzel rods
  • 6 oz/170g white Candy Melts about half a bag
  • Red white, and blue sprinkles

Instructions

  • Line a large tray or baking sheet with wax paper.
  • Place candy melts in a microwave safe bowl. Melt on high heat, stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted. Do not overheat. If the candy is too thick, add vegetable shortening or coconut oil in 1 teaspoon increments, up to 1 tablespoon, and stir well. Do not add water.
  • Dip pretzels into melted candy, and using a spoon, cover pretzel about halfway with melted candy.
  • Hold pretzel longways over the cup or bowl, allowing excess candy to drip off.
  • Place on wax paper and top with sprinkles immediately so that they stick.
  • Place in refrigerator for about 30-60 minutes to set.

Notes

You will also need wax paper or greaseproof paper to place the pretzel rods as they dry.
