📝 Ingredients

• 20-25 pretzel rods
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 2 Tbsp. coconut oil, divided
• peanuts, chopped
• fruity pebbles cereal
• assorted sprinkles

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Line a baking sheet or plate with parchment paper or wax paper.
2. 2Place the chopped peanuts, Fruity Pebbles, and sprinkles into separate shallow bowls or plates.
3. 3Set up your dipping station with the topping bowls nearby.
4. 4Fill a small pot with about 1 inch of water. Bring it to a simmer over medium-low heat. Set a heat-safe bowl over the pot. Make sure the bowl does not touch the water. Add the dark chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is smooth and melted. Transfer to a tall, narrow glass or jar.
5. 5Do the same for the white chocolate chips.
6. 6Take a pretzel rod, holding it by one end. Dip it into your chosen melted chocolate. Turn the pretzel rod to coat it evenly, about two-thirds of the way up. Allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the glass.
7. 7Working relatively quickly, hold the chocolate-coated pretzel rod over your desired topping. Sprinkle the topping onto the wet chocolate, rotating the pretzel to cover all sides. You can also gently roll the wet chocolate part in the toppings if your bowls are wide enough.
8. 8Place the decorated pretzel rods on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
9. 9Place the baking sheets with the pretzel rods into the fridge for about 30 minutes, or let them sit at cool room temperature for about an hour, until the chocolate is completely firm.
