Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 60 mini pretzels
- 6-8 squares white chocolate almond bark (about 6 ounces)
- 3-4 tablespoons heart-shaped sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare Pretzels: Lay the mini pretzels in a single layer on a sheet of wax paper. This will prevent them from sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Melt Almond Bark: Place the white chocolate almond bark squares in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave starting with 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Pipe Chocolate onto Pretzels: Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with a small corner cut off. Carefully fill the center of each pretzel with the melted white chocolate to form a heart shape, working in small batches of about 5 pretzels at a time to prevent the chocolate from setting too fast.
- Add Sprinkles: Immediately sprinkle heart-shaped sprinkles over the melted chocolate before it sets to decorate each pretzel heart.
- Let Set: Allow the pretzels to set at room temperature for 20-30 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.
- Serve or Store: Once set, serve immediately or store the pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to several days.
Notes
- Work in small batches when adding chocolate and sprinkles to prevent the chocolate from hardening before decorating.
- Use wax paper or parchment paper to prevent sticking while the pretzels set.
- Store in a cool, dry place to prevent chocolate from melting or blooming.
- You can substitute white chocolate almond bark with white chocolate chips, but melting times may vary slightly.
- This recipe is easy to customize with different types of sprinkles or colored chocolate for various occasions.
