Chocolate Covered Pretzels

I was having some friends over and wanted to make some appetizers and desserts to snack on. I saw some pretzel sticks at the store and knew exactly what I wanted to make.

This is the easiest dessert to make, because it's really just 2 ingredients: milk chocolate chips and pretzel rods (plus sprinkles!).

I poured about 3/4 cup of choc chips in a latte mug (tall mug).

I zapped it in the microwave for 30 seconds and mixed the chocolate with a butter knife. 

I put it back in the microwave for 30 more seconds and it came out perfectly creamy!

I turn the mug horizontal and made the chocolate even so it would be easy to spin and coat the pretzel rods.

I lined up the coated pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You could also use wax paper or a silicone mat.

I sprinkled the pretzels with pink and orange crystal sprinkles! Of course, you could also roll the pretzels in rainbow sprinkles or drizzle them with white chocolate.

All set up!
