Description
Introducing the ultimate patriotic snack – Patriotic Pretzel Rods! These delightful treats are the perfect way to celebrate the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or any other patriotic occasion. With their vibrant red, white, and blue colors, these pretzel rods are sure to add a festive touch to your holiday gatherings.
Ingredients
- 12 pretzel rods
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts
- Red and blue candy melts (optional)
- Red, white, and blue sprinkles
Instructions
1. Start by melting the white chocolate chips or candy melts in the microwave. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and creamy. Be sure to keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
2. One by one, dip the pretzel rods halfway into the melted white chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off before placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the Patriotic Pretzel Rods with the red, white, and blue sprinkles. For an extra pop of color, you can also drizzle the pretzels with melted red and blue candy melts.
4. Allow the Patriotic Pretzel Rods to cool completely, about 30 minutes, until the chocolate has hardened. Once set, they’re ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
These Patriotic Pretzel Rods aren’t just for the 4th of July – they can be adapted for other patriotic holidays like Memorial Day or Veterans Day by adjusting the color scheme. Get creative and make them your own!
