So I just hosted a potluck Christmas Party last night and I made a ton of new recipes (well new to me at least), so I'd like to show what I made, not just today, but everyday right up until Christmas...hence the 10 days of Christmas title! (I was a little late on the 12 Days!)
The first thing I made were Chocolate Dipped Candy cane Pretzels. Now when I see recipes like that I'm usually a little unsure because I'm not a huge person on mixing sweet and salty together, but they looked fantastic. So I figured what the hell, I'll give something new a shot.
It's so simple actually!
Just melt light chocolate wafers dip half of the pretzel in
then right into the crushed candy canes
and the set them on a lined tray.
Then after your done all that you want to do, get the white chocolate wafers melted, grab a spoon and drizzle the white chocolate over the side you didn't dip in.
Pretty simple. Just let them dry over night, or shove them in the fridge for a few hours and PARFECTO! They are all set, just make sure they get put into a container right away after they are dried because you don't want stale pretzels (EW!).
So here's what you need:
1 Bag of Pretzel twists (or more depending on how much you want to make) - DON'T USE THE BROKEN ONES!!
1 small microwavable bowl full of Light Melting Chocolate Wafers (I used a tuperware container, look at the image for size)
1/2 of a small microwavable bowl full of White Chocolate Melting Wafers
1 cup of crushed Candy Canes (you won't use all of it)
They turned out great for me, and everyone loved them. They all said it was a perfect mix of sweet and salty, and I felt the same, it was just nice and not over done!
I hope you enjoy this as much as we all did!!
