Chocolate Covered Pumpkin Pretzels
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes
Yield: about 36 pretzels
- 3/4 cup orange candy melts
- 1 bag (16 ounces) mini pretzel twists
- 1/4 cup mini green coated chocolate candies
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In medium microwave-safe bowl, melt candy melts 30 seconds then stir. Working in 15-second intervals, continue microwaving until melted and smooth, stirring between intervals. With fork or dipping utensil, dip 36 mini pretzel twists, one at a time, into melted orange chocolate and gently tap side of bowl to remove excess.
- Lay each covered pretzel on parchment paper. Using remaining pretzel twists, break apart enough to equal 1/4 cup.
- Place one mini green chocolate candy (to form leaf) and one broken pretzel piece (to form stem) on top of each dipped pretzel. Repeat with remaining pretzels and chocolate candies.
- Let set until solid. Pretzels can harden on counter about 30 minutes, or placed in refrigerator or freezer 5-10 minutes.
