My sister absolutely loves snacks that are both sweet and salty.

Chocolate-covered potato chips and chocolate-covered peanuts are on the list, but chocolate-covered pretzels are her all time favorite.

They guarantee that perfect ratio of chocolate to crunchy salty pretzel.

I made half my pretzels with white chocolate and half with semi-sweet chocolate.

If you love milk chocolate, use that instead.

Decorate Your Pretzels!

you could leave your pretzels plain or drizzle them with a little extra chocolate, as I have done.

If you want to get fancy, dress them up with candy sprinkles, coconut flakes or chopped nuts.

Sprinkles are a great way to dress up these treats for Halloween, Christmas, or any holiday!

Place a mini pretzel in the semi-sweet chocolate and push it below the surface with a fork to coat.

Use a fork to remove the pretzel from the chocolate.

Then tap it gently against the sides of the bowl until most of the chocolate has dripped off.

Repeat until you have coated half the pretzels.

You should still have a little melted chocolate left.

Repeat the process for melting the chocolate using the white chocolate chips in a clean bowl.

Repeat the coating process with the remaining pretzels in the white chocolate.

If you want more control over the drizzle, scoop the chocolate into a quart size freezer re-sealable bag.

Snip a very small corner of the bag (1/16-inch) to make a tiny hole.

Squeeze the bag to drizzle the chocolate in a more controlled manner.

Then remove from pan and store in an air-tight container in the fridge.

The pretzels will keep for 7 to 10 days.
