Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz chocolate melting wafers
  • 24 pretzel rods
  • 0.33 cup Halloween sprinkles

Equipment

  • 1 rimmed baking sheet
  • 1 tall microwave-safe container
  • 1 microwave

Method
 

  1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Put the chocolate wafers in a tall, microwave-safe container and microwave for 30 seconds.
  3. Stir, then continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth.
  4. Dip about two-thirds of each pretzel rod into the chocolate, letting excess drip back into the container.
  5. Place each dipped pretzel rod on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Immediately add sprinkles.
  7. Let the pretzels set at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes, until the chocolate is firm.

Notes

For neat coating, let excess chocolate drip back into the container before placing each rod on the sheet. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days; freezing is not recommended. For a dairy-free option, use dairy-free chocolate melting wafers.
