Scale
Ingredients
- 120 mini pretzels
- 8 oz. green melting chocolate wafers (Wilton)
- Holiday sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the workspace: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the pretzels from sticking once dipped and assembled.
- Melt the chocolate: Melt the green melting chocolate wafers according to the package instructions, either in the microwave in short intervals stirring frequently or using a double boiler method until smooth.
- Dip the first layer: Dip 5 mini pretzels halfway into the melted green chocolate and place them on the prepared baking sheet arranged in a circular wreath shape.
- Build the second layer: Dip 5 more mini pretzels halfway in the green chocolate and position them on top of the first layer, staggering them to cover the gaps between pretzels to create a fuller wreath look.
- Add sprinkles and set: Decorate the wreaths with holiday sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet, then allow the wreaths to set completely on the baking sheet until the chocolate hardens.
