Description

These colorful Patriotic Pretzel Rods combine sweet candy coating with crunchy salty pretzels for the perfect summer party treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag pretzel rods
  • 1 bag white candy melts
  • 1 bag red candy melts
  • 1 bag blue candy melts
  • Patriotic sprinkles optional

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt each candy melt color separately in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Transfer melted candy into tall glasses for easier dipping.
  4. Dip each pretzel rod about three-quarters into the candy coating.
  5. Place dipped pretzels onto the parchment-lined tray.
  6. Dip the tips in blue candy melts after white coating sets for flag designs.
  7. Transfer leftover candy melts into piping bags and drizzle over pretzels.
  8. Add patriotic sprinkles before the candy coating hardens.
  9. Allow pretzels to set for about 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

  1. Store pretzel rods in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
  2. Keep at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
  3. Use parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking.
