Ingredients
Scale
- 24 pretzel rods
- 4 cups white chocolate chips (or vanilla almond bark, white chocolate melting wafers, or white candy melts)
- 1/2 cup pink candy melts
- 1/2 cup light blue candy melts
- 1/2 cup yellow candy melts
- pastel easter sprinkles
- 24 peeps bunnies (any color or assorted colors)
Instructions
- Prepare a cookie sheet or countertop by lining it with parchment paper or wax paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips by heating for 1 minute, stirring, and then heating in 30-second increments until smooth. Pour into a tall jar for dipping.
- Dip each pretzel rod three-quarters into the melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off before placing on parchment paper. Repeat for all pretzel rods.
- Melt the colored candy melts in separate bowls as per package instructions.
- Transfer each melted candy melt color into a ziplock bag or small piping bag, snipping off the bottom corner to drizzle.
- Drizzle the colored candy melts over the white chocolate dipped pretzel rods and sprinkle with pastel sprinkles while still wet.
- Using leftover candy melts or white chocolate as glue, attach a Peep on top of each pretzel rod.
- Let the pretzel rods set at room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
For a fun twist, try using different colors of candy melts to match party themes.
These make great gifts or treats for gatherings and holidays!
Store in an airtight container to keep the pretzel rods crunchy.
