Fancy Chocolate-Dipped Pretzels

My two favorites were dark chocolate drizzled with white chocolate and white chocolate with crushed candy cane. These make great hostess gifts or gifts for neighbors or coworkers.

Directions
Every year, I like to give handmade Christmas gifts. This year, I decided to imitate Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory’s hand-dipped chocolate pretzels, and they turned out great! I wrapped them in mini cellophane bags tied with bells and packaged them in fun, decorative tins I found in the $1 section at Target.
Mix chocolate chips and Crisco and microwave 1 minute. Stir. Continue to microwave and stir the mixture until it’s liquidy.
Dip pretzel; shake off excess chocolate.
Cover in topping.
Place on cookie sheet.
Leave in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Done!
