Pretzel Wreath

These are yummy just as a treat, but they can also be an edible ornament! This idea came from The Pampered Chef. Lydia came over and we made them together. Brynlee was great at dipping the pretzels!

1 bag Mini Pretzels

1 pkg Almond Bark

Colored Sprinkles

Yield 26 wreaths

Break almond bark into chunks and put into a small deep bowl. Melt in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted completely. Make sure your stirring utensil is completely dry, even one drop of water can ruin the consistency of the chocolate.

Dip the bottom half of each pretzel into the chocolate mixture. Place coated pretzel onto a piece of wax paper. Arrange 5 coated pretzels into a circle, with the chocolate touching each other in the center. Repeat this again for the second layer on top. Sprinkle toppings as desired. Let cool, about 15 minutes.

*Helpful Tips*

-Don't use any other type of chocolate except the almond bark or candy melts (candy that is designed for melting). These have certain fats that have great melting qualities, whereas they are removed for chocolate chips.

-If the almond bark starts getting stiff and cold, melt it again in the microwave.

-Don't have any sprinkles? No problem. Just use one drop of food coloring to 1/2 cup of regular sugar and stir! Get a variety of colored sprinkles for a fraction of the cost of the bottled stuff! Store the remaining sprinkles in an air tight container for future use.
