Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Coating
- 3 squares white chocolate almond bark, melted
Bunny Pretzels
- 24 pretzel twists
Decorations
- Pink food coloring gel
- Black food coloring gel
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: Begin by melting the white chocolate almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each, until smooth and fully melted. This will serve as the base coating for your pretzels.
- Color the Chocolate Gel: Separate small amounts of the melted almond bark into two separate bowls. Add pink food coloring gel to one and black food coloring gel to the other to create colored icing for decorating the bunnies.
- Dip the Pretzels: Dip each pretzel twist into the melted white chocolate almond bark to coat it evenly. Shake off the excess chocolate gently to avoid drips and place the coated pretzels on parchment paper to set.
- Decorate the Bunnies: Using a toothpick or a small piping bag, apply the pink chocolate gel to create the bunny ears and nose on each pretzel. Use the black chocolate gel to add eyes and mouth details, bringing the bunnies to life.
- Allow to Set: Let the decorated pretzels sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens completely, approximately 20-30 minutes, so the decorations stay intact.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once set, arrange your bunny pretzels on a serving platter and enjoy them as a whimsical snack or dessert.
Notes
- For best results, use high-quality white chocolate almond bark to ensure smooth melting and easy coating.
- If you don’t have food coloring gels, you can substitute with candy melts in pink and black colors.
- Store the finished pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- This recipe can be easily doubled or halved depending on the number of servings needed.
- Make sure to work quickly when dipping pretzels to prevent the chocolate from hardening before decorating.
