    Chocolate Peppermint Pretzels

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    chocolate peppermint pretzels

    I LOVE chocolate peppermint pretzels!

    I don't normally see them at the grocery store until the holidays and I remember last year, they seemed to sell out of them quickly.  I am not the only one that likes these things.

    I decided to make my own!  They were delicious but since I eat them at warp speed I wanted to figure out a less calorie dense way to make these things.

    In the middle of the night, I had an epiphany!  What if I drizzled chocolate over the pretzels instead of dipping them?  I am horrible about dipping anyways.

    This way, I could reduce the amount of chocolate needed and still get the crunchy, chocolaty, pepper-minty goodness!

    They turned out excellent......and only took about 15 minutes to whip them up and about 2 hours to cool.

    Try 'em!

    Ingredients

    • Pretzels about 50 small
    • 1 cup chocolate chips or bittersweet or white chocolate
    • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
    • 5 small candy canes crushed

    Instructions

    • Place a sheet of parchment on a cookie sheet and lay out the pretzels, keeping them fairly close to each other.
    • Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil until runny and pour-able.
    • Drizzle heavily on to the pretzels. Do not try to make it pretty or even--just use the chocolate you have to cover as well as possible. The entire pretzel will not be covered.
    • Sprinkle the crushed candy canes onto the chocolate covered pretzels.
    • Allow to cool in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
    • After they are cooled off a bit, you may need to break them apart from each other a little bit.
