Step by Step Method
Step 1
Place the chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler. Add water in the bottom pan and heat the water to melt the chocolate chips. If you do not have a double boiler place the chips in a metal bowl or pot to cover the bottom one that has the water in it (the chocolate must be melted slowly or it will seize up).
Step 2
When the chips are melted, take off stove and dip each pretzel rod first in the chocolate about half way down the rod. Spread evenly with a knife. Coat the dipped pretzels with sprinkles, jimmies or colored sugars.
Step 3
Place the dipped rods on waxed paper to let the chocolate harden. It will take about one hour.
Step 4
Wrap each in plastic wrap to store or place in an airtight container, plastic bag, or a tin to keep fresh.
