Instructions

1

Prepare baking sheet

Melt chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.

Pro tip: Use a double boiler for more control if you prefer.

3

Dip pretzels

Dip each pretzel halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.

Pro tip: Use a fork to help dip and remove pretzels.

4

Arrange on sheet

Place the chocolate-dipped pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.

Pro tip: Space the pretzels out evenly to avoid sticking.

5

Sprinkle with sea salt

Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on each pretzel.

Pro tip: Be sparing with the salt to keep it balanced.

6

Chill treats
