Homemade Soft Pretzels

If you follow my personal instagram or facebook then you know I made some of these last week.   Well, I just did again today.  I love homemade pretzels, or really most soft pretzels.  And this recipe from bhg is awesome!  I am still needing to buy actual pretzel salt but my trusty Kosher Salt has been working well in the meantime.

These are fairly easy to make, really the hardest part is making them look like actual pretzels, and if you don't what they look like then you could do twists or even kind of bun like things.  Oh and the boiling part is kind of challenging because of the whole boiling water part..for those of us who are clutzy at least.  Just be careful and enjoy!

Chocolate Drizzled Pretzels--An Easy Sweet and Salty Treat

 I don't know about you, but I love sweet and salty things.  Chocolate covered pretzels, kettle corn, you name it...  So when I felt like something sweet and salty last night I thought of this simple treat!

All you need is:

2 c. Pretzels (Rods, sticks, etc...)

3-4 oz. Chocolate (Dark, Milk, White or combo of any/all of them)

1.  Start by lining a baking sheet with some waxed paper (or parchment).  Lay out a thing layer or so of pretzels.

2.  Melt chocolate(s) in the microwave 15 seconds at a time, stirring in between.   Then place melted chocolate carefully in a zippered bag and cut a small hole out of the corner.  Drizzle over pretzels.

 3.  Repeat step 2 with other types of chocolate if desired.

 4.  Once the pretzels are desirably drizzled with chocolate place in refrigerator for about 15 minutes to set.

 5.  Break apart, place on serving dish and enjoy!!  Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.  But I doubt you'll have any leftovers!  :)

Yum!
