Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups pretzels
- 1 cup Christmas M&M’s
- 16 ounces (454 grams) melting chocolate
Instructions
- Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet to create a smooth surface for your chocolate pretzel confections.
- Select a microwave-safe bowl and carefully melt the chocolate, using short 30-second bursts and stirring gently between intervals to achieve a silky, uniform consistency.
- Gently fold the pretzels into the molten chocolate, ensuring each piece receives a thorough, even chocolate coating.
- Distribute the chocolate-drenched pretzels across the prepared parchment sheet, creating an artful, single-layer arrangement.
- Artfully scatter the festive Christmas M&M’s over the chocolate-coated pretzels, allowing the colorful candies to nestle into the still-soft chocolate surface.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator, allowing the treats to set and solidify for approximately one hour until the chocolate becomes completely firm and glossy.
- Once fully chilled, delicately break the chocolate pretzel creation into rustic, bite-sized pieces that showcase the interplay of chocolate, pretzels, and colorful M&M’s.
- Serve immediately for optimal crunch and flavor, or store in an airtight container to preserve the treats’ delightful texture and festive appeal.
