Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (any flavor - see note about using almond bark)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 0.5 cup chopped nuts (any kind)
  • 12 rods Pretzel Rods

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Place chopped nuts in a bowl and gather pretzel rods.
  2. Stir chocolate chips and oil in a microwave safe bowl. (I like to use Dixie paper bowls for this because it’s easy clean up.) Heat on high power in 30 second increments, stirring between each, until chocolate is melted and smooth.
  3. Dip each pretzel rod in the chocolate as far as you can in the bowl you’re using. If you want the chocolate to come further up the rod than the bowl allows, use a spoon to paint it up the rod. Tap off the excess chocolate, then place the rod on the prepared cookie sheet. Sprinkle with chopped almonds. Repeat until chocolate is gone. Chill to set.
  4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

These pretzels can be made up to 14 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If your dipping chocolate is too thick, adding a little vegetable oil will help thin it out.
