Ingredients
- 1 package pretzel rods (10 ounces)
- 12 ounces chocolate (milk or dark )
- 6 ounces chocolate candy melts (white or milk )
- 14 ounces caramel squares (unwrapped)
- 1 tablespoon light cream
Steps
-
Line a large sheet or pan with parchment paper.
-
Combine the caramel squares and light cream in a medium microwave safe bowl.
-
Microwave the mixture 2-3 minutes (in 30-second increments, stirring after every 30 seconds) until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
-
Pour the caramel mixture into a tall glass measuring cup or mug. Dip each pretzel rod ⅔ of the way to cover in caramel. Place on parchment paper to cool.
-
Once the caramel is set, melt the chocolate in the microwave on 40% power for 45 seconds. Stir and continue microwaving at 20-second intervals until just melted. Stir until smooth.
-
Dip the caramel-coated pretzels into the melted chocolate and place on parchment paper to cool. (You may want to pour the chocolate into a tall glass measuring cup or mug.)
-
Melt the chocolate melts in a small zippered bag and snip the corner off. Drizzle over chocolate. Add favorite decorations if desired.
-
Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 2 ½ dozen.
