CHRISTMAS PRETZEL RODS RECIPE

Categories     dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Pretzel rods
Brown candy coating, milk chocolate morsels, or chocolate almond bark
White candy coating, white chocolate morsels, or vanilla almond bark
Green candy coating
Red candy coating
Assorted sprinkles:
Confetti Holly Mix
Wilton Holiday Nonpareils
Wilton Christmas Snowflake Sprinkles
Crushed peppermint

Steps:

  • Melt the candy coating according to package directions giving special care not to overheat the candy. If the candy coating is overheated, it will be too thick. You can add 2 teaspoons of vegetable shortening to help thin the candy but do not add any other type of liquid as the candy will seize and harden.
  • Pour candy coating over two-thirds of the pretzel rod and shake gently to remove excess. If applying sprinkles, do so immediately rotating the pretzel rods to coat all sides. Larger sprinkles work best if placed individually.
  • Place pretzel rod on waxed paper or cooling rack. (Cook's notes: Waxed paper makes for easier release.)
  • If drizzling with additional colored candy melts, allow the initial candy coating to set completely. Then, use a spoon or fork to drizzle candy coating over the pretzel rods. Before the pretzel sets, gently pick it up and move to clean wax paper.
  • Let pretzel rods dry completely before packaging or serving.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature. Placing in the refrigerator may cause the pretzel to soften.

CHOCOLATE PRETZEL RING CANDIES



Chocolate Pretzel Ring Candies image

Such an easy & quick candy, nice for any holiday thanks to the variety of holiday colors m&m's come in. This comes from an old magazine - was it Taste of Home or Quick Cooking? I can't remember, but they sure are tasty & cute! While the recipe calls for small pretzel rings, you'll get equally great results with mini twists and even Rold Gold butter checker pretzels if available in your neck of the woods.

Categories     Candy

Time 8m

Yield 50 candies

Number Of Ingredients 3

50 small pretzels, rings
50 Hershey chocolate kisses, unwrapped
50 M&M's plain chocolate candy

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275* F, line a baking tray with waxed paper and spray with cooking spray.
  • Lay out pretzels in a single layer, top each with a Hershey kiss in the center.
  • Bake 2-3 minutes, just till chocolate is softened.
  • Remove from oven and press an m&m into each kiss, flattening it a bit and creating a"bed" of chocolate.
  • Firm up in the fridge for 10 minutes or so, but store at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Organic pretzels, butter, and cream cheese will make a big difference.
  • Be sure to let the dough chill before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and will make it easier to work with.
  • If you don't have a pretzel roller, you can use a rolling pin to flatten the dough. Just be sure to roll it out evenly so that the pretzels are all the same size.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pretzels. They should be golden brown and crispy, but not hard.
  • Let the pretzels cool completely before dipping them in chocolate or frosting. This will help to prevent the chocolate or frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Christmas pretzel rings are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any holiday party. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create beautiful and unique pretzels that will impress your friends and family. So get creative and have fun making these delicious treats!
