Description
Make simple, salty-sweet pretzel clusters using only a few ingredients. This recipe requires no oven time.
Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shortening
- 3 cups small pretzel twists or broken pretzel pieces
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts or other mix-ins (optional)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on 50% power for 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total.
- Stir the broken pretzels and any optional mix-ins into the melted chocolate until they are evenly coated.
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small clusters.
- Refrigerate the clusters for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
Notes
- For a faster set time, place the clusters in the freezer for 15 minutes instead of the refrigerator.
- You can substitute the chocolate chips with white chocolate or milk chocolate if preferred.
- Store the finished clusters in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
