Holiday - White Chocolate Covered Pretzels


From Art and Bev:

What's nice about this recipe is that you can use almond bark or any other meltable "chocolate".  And the sprinkles can be any color.
Ingredients


1 Block of almond bark

2 Bags of Rold Gold Pretzels (or pretzel stick twists - honey wheat)

1 Container of Crisco (mainly to assist smoothing of chocolate)

1 Holiday sprinkles


The ingredients are simple, but the equipment is a little more important:


1 Double boiler (if you don't have one, then a pot that will fit into a larger pot)

2 Cookie sheets

Wax paper


Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and set aside

Melt the almond bark in the double boiler and be very careful not to get any water in the almond bark. 

Once the bark is smooth, drop pretzels in and coat them and lay them on the wax paper.  Sprinkle the sprinkles as you complete rows of pretzels.  Once a tray is full, place it into the freezer.  Keep it in the freezer for about 15 minutes (approximately the time it takes to fill another cookie sheet with more pretzels).  The pretzels should come off easily and you can place them on a serving platter. 


If the bark gets overheated or gets wet, it will start to turn chunky.  To get the chocolate smooth again, add Crisco (approximately 1 tablespoon at a time) and stir it in until it gets smooth again.
