Chocolate-Dipped Pretzel Broomsticks

Here’s a delightful and spooky recipe perfect for a Halloween or any themed party!

Ingredients:

• Pretzel rods: 1 package
• Chocolate: 1 cup (milk, dark, or white chocolate chips)
• Candy corn: 1 cup, crushed (or you can use mini candy corn for a more authentic broom look)
• Parchment paper: For cooling

Instructions:

1. Melt the Chocolate:

   • In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.

2. Dip the Pretzel Rods:

   • Take a pretzel rod and dip one end into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s coated well. You can tilt the bowl to make dipping easier.

3. Add the Candy Corn:

   • Immediately roll the chocolate-dipped end of the pretzel rod in the crushed candy corn. Make sure to cover the chocolate well to resemble broom bristles.

4. Cool the Broomsticks:

   • Place the decorated pretzel broomsticks on a sheet of parchment paper. Allow them to cool and harden completely. You can speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

5. Serve:

   • Once the chocolate has set, your Chocolate-Dipped Pretzel Broomsticks are ready to serve! They make a great addition to Halloween treats or as a fun party snack.

Tips:

• For added flair, drizzle some extra melted chocolate over the broomsticks after they’ve cooled for a decorative touch.
• Experiment with different types of toppings, such as sprinkles or crushed nuts, for a unique twist.
