What you need for these Christmas tree pretzels:
Ingredients:
- 12-ounce package green candy melts
- 15 stick pretzels
- Sprinkles for decorating (mine were Wilton Holiday sprinkles)
Equipment:
- Microwave safe bowl
- Piping bag
Place the green candy melts in a microwave safe bowl and heat them in the microwave according to the package instructions. Transfer the melted candy to your piping bag and cut the tip off the bag.
Using the pipping bag, drizzle the candy over the top of the pretzel stick in a zig zag pattern. Make the lines slightly larger as you move down the pretzel to create a triangle shape for your Pretzel Christmas Trees.
Decorate the trees with the sprinkles immediately before they harden. You may have to gently press the sprinkles into the trees to adhere them. Then allow them to set for a few hours to completely harden before picking them up.
These sweet and a little bit salty Christmas Tree pretzels are great for class parties, holiday cookie exchanges and special treats for service personnel. And if you place them in clear treat bags they would be darling as gift toppers.
