Ingredients Needed
- Pretzel twists
- White Chocolate
- XO Sprinkles
How to Make White Chocolate Pretzel Hearts
Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Spread the pretzel twists evenly across the sheet.
Place the white melting wafers in a piping bag. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, kneading the bag gently between each round until the wafers are fully melted.
Cut a small tip off the piping bag with scissors. Pipe the melted chocolate into the center section of each pretzel twist, forming a heart shape.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the XO sprinkles over the pretzels.
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer for about 20 minutes, or place it in the refrigerator for 60 minutes, until the chocolate hardens.
Once set, transfer the pretzels to an airtight container to keep them fresh.
Tips for Making
- Work quickly, as the melted wafers will start to set if left for too long. If it hardens, reheat in 10-second intervals.
- Add sprinkles immediately after piping the chocolate before it begins to firm up.
Substitutions and Variations:
- Chocolate options: Use milk or dark chocolate instead of white for a richer flavor and different colors.
- Sprinkle swaps: Swap out the XO sprinkles for seasonal or themed sprinkles.
- Pretzel alternatives: Try mini pretzel rods or pretzel snaps for a different look.
- Add a drizzle: Once the first layer of chocolate sets, drizzle with a contrasting color of melted chocolate for extra decoration.
And just like that, you’ve got a batch of sweet-and-salty perfection that’ll have everyone thinking you spent hours in the kitchen (shh, we won’t tell!). These white chocolate pretzels are the perfect little bites for the holiday, and the best part? You can customize them for any occasion.
