  • Yield: 30 pretzel bites 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

🧂 Experience the perfect blend of sweet and salty with these easy-to-make candy bar pretzel treats, ideal for Thanksgiving gatherings.
🍬 These delightful bites not only look festive but also offer a satisfying crunch, making them perfect for holiday parties or gifts.


Ingredients

Scale

30 rectangular pretzel snaps or 60 mini twist pretzels
About 30 mini candy bars (Snickers, 3 Musketeers, Milky Way)
16 ounces vanilla candy coating or white chocolate chips
Assorted sprinkles for decoration


Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. Arrange the pretzel snaps on the baking sheet and place one mini candy bar on top of each pretzel.
3. Warm the pretzels with candy bars in the oven for about 3 minutes until the candy begins to soften. Alternatively, you can soften them in the microwave for a few seconds.
4. Press a second pretzel on top of each softened candy bar to form a sandwich. Allow the chocolate to set.
5. Melt the vanilla candy coating gently, using 50% power in the microwave to avoid overheating, or melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
6. Dip each pretzel sandwich halfway into the melted candy coating and place it back onto the baking sheet.
7. Before the coating sets, sprinkle with assorted sprinkles for decoration.
8. Allow the candy coating to harden completely before serving.

Notes

🌀 Use rectangular pretzel snaps for the best results; mini twist pretzels or Ritz crackers can also work.
🍫 Soft-centered candy bars are the easiest to squish between the pretzels for a smooth sandwich.
❄️ To hasten the setting process, refrigerate the pretzel bites after dipping in candy coating.
