Yummm! I picked up some chocolate wafers at the local craft store and some mini pretzels at Walmart and the girls and I made some chocolate covered pretzels! First, we melted the wafers in the microwave in a 2-cup measuring cup. When the chocolate was smooth, we put the pretzels into the cup. We mixed them up till all the pretzels were covered. We used a straw to take the pretzels out of the cup then set them on a piece of wax paper. We let them set for about an hour till they hardened. Then we wrapped them in a treat bag and tied a ribbon around it. Now we have little gift bags to give out to friends and family!

Pretzels are also very good with white chocolate. I like those around the holidays. I remember getting them as a kid on holiday cookie plates given to us by friends and family. Still one of my favorites!

I agree about the white chocolate, something else that is good too is butterscotch. YUMMY.

So you take butterscotch chips just like you melt down the white chocolate orr the chocolate chips, and then coat them in butterscotch?

I used to love these. I also used to eat the Pretzel Joys (crushed pretzels in chocolate)...they were my favorite candy store treat.

Oh these sound lovevel but I think that I would only be allowed to eat a small amount of these due to I have sugar diabeties and have to be careful on the amount of my sugar intake. But they sound a delightful gift to give to someone.

I love chocolate covered pretzels. I even love just dipping pretzels in chocolate icing right out of the can. I like the salty and sweet taste together.
