On the Eighth Day of Cookies...

My mother-in-law makes batches of these every year, and this has become one of my favorite holiday treats. This holiday candy is very easy to make, but does take some time. Well worth it for this delicious candy coated sweet and salty pretzel. I definitely think I need to invest in some proper tools for this as most of my pretzels were blobish (but still delicious!).

Almond Bark Pretzels
1 pound white dipping chocolate or almond bark
1 small bag pretzels
Colored Candy Sprinkles

1. Microwave almond bark on high, stirring every minute or so until completely melted (usually 2-3 minutes).

2. Drop a pretzel into melted almond bark. Use a fondue fork to fully submerge and swirl the pretzel to cover all surfaces. Lift the pretzel out with the fondue fork. With the pretzel still on the fork tap the fork against the top of the bowl to shake off the excess coating.

3. Place the coated pretzel on the wax paper. Decorate with color sugar or sprinkles. Allow to cool.

4. Store the finished pretzels in Ziploc bags or other air tight container.
