Chocolate covered pretzel wreaths

Every Christmas I like to give my husband's choir members a little something homemade for Christmas. I don't think any of them read my blog so I think I'm safe to post this. The party is tomorrow night.

I recently brought home a few Christmas cookbooks from the library. I found a really cute idea to make pretzel wreaths but decided to make it my own way. This is what I came up with.


You'll need a bag of white chocolate chips (I found this will make about 5 wreaths). You could also use white bark, which is probably cheaper, unless you find a good deal on chips. You could use any kind of sprinkles you wish. I thought this holly and berry mix was really cute.

11-12 small twist pretzels per wreath.

Melt chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.

Using a fork, cover pretzels in chocolate, letting it drain well.

Place each pretzel on wax paper connecting them in a circle.

Place 6 pretzels in a circle for the first layer.

You can use 5 or 6 pretzels for the second layer, overlapping the pretzels on the first layer. (That doesn't sound quite right, but I can't think how else to say it LOL)

Add the sprinkles before the chocolate dries. I put them in the freezer for a few minutes so they will get nice hard.

These aren't the greatest pics but this one has 5 pretzels on the top layer.

You could add a ribbon at the top or add a bow.
