Pretzel Treats Green Drizzle (Printer-friendly)
Bite-sized pretzels with a smooth green chocolate topping, ideal for festive snacks or gatherings.
# What You Need:
→ Pretzel Base
01 - 24 mini pretzel twists or squares
→ Toppings
02 - 4 oz white chocolate chips or melting wafers
03 - 1–2 drops green gel food coloring
04 - 2 tsp coconut oil or neutral vegetable oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
05 - Sprinkles, crushed nuts, or mini candies (optional)
# How to Make It:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the pretzels in a single layer.
02 - Place white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring thoroughly between each interval, until completely smooth. Stir in coconut oil if using for a thinner consistency.
03 - Add green gel food coloring one drop at a time, mixing well after each addition until you achieve your desired shade of green.
04 - Transfer the melted green chocolate to a small piping bag or a zip-top bag with a tiny corner snipped off for drizzling.
05 - Generously drizzle the green chocolate over the arranged pretzels in a back-and-forth motion.
06 - Immediately sprinkle with crushed nuts, mini candies, or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet so they adhere properly.
07 - Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature for 15–20 minutes, or refrigerate for 5–10 minutes until firm.
08 - Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

02 -
- Liquid food coloring will seize and ruin your chocolate, always use gel
- Work fast once you start drizzling or the chocolate will thicken in the bag
03 -
- If your chocolate seizes or gets too thick, whisk in a teaspoon more coconut oil
- Pipe the chocolate onto a separate piece of parchment first to test your pressure and flow
