Treat Day Wednesday–Dipped Pretzels

Last week when I was coming out of Whole Foods with the cherries for Rob’s father’s day Black Forest Cake, a sweet lady was selling chocolate dipped pretzels to raise money for a local women’s shelter.  She asked me to try the “thin mint” version and OMG it was the best tasting thing I’ve ever had.  So as I donated  a couple bucks and walked away without a box of them, I said to myself.  “I need to make me some of those!”

So here goes!  Easy peasy.  I tried a couple different varieties.  This is what you need:

• pretzels (your favourite)
• 1-4 oz bar dark chocolate
• 1-4 oz bar white chocolate
• shortening
• caramels
• coconut
• peppermint flavouring
• anything else you’d like!

1. Melt one chocolate bar with 1tsp shortening.  When smooth add flavouring. 
2. Add sprinkles or what ever suits your fancy!
3. Enjoy…bet you can’t eat just one :)

Thanks for looking!
