How to Make Pretzel Wreaths
Pretzel Wreaths with a red licorice bow are an adorable and festive Christmas food craft idea! A favorite holiday treat.
Servings: 6 pretzel wreaths
Equipment
- mini pretzels
- mini red m&ms
- green sugar sprinkles
- cherry Twizzler pull and peel sticks
- white chocolate chips
- Vegetable oil
- Parchment paper
- small microwave-safe bowl
- spoon or small spatula for stirring
Instructions
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips with vegetable oil. Mix until all white chocolate chips are coated in oil, this will help them heat evenly.
- Microwave the white chocolate chips for 10-second intervals, stirring well between each 10-second interval. Continue to heat and mix until you have smooth white chocolate.
- Dip 6 mini pretzels into the white chocolate halfway and arrange them in a circle on parchment paper. Make sure the white chocolate side of the pretzel is on the inside of the circle and that they are touching.
- Repeat step 3 but lay the next dipped mini pretzels on top of the first layer.
- Quickly sprinkle green sugar sprinkles over the melted white chocolate and arrange red M&M’s evenly around the white chocolate.
- Place the wreaths in a refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes.
- While the wreaths are chilling, pull 2 attached strands of Twizzlers pull and tie a bow. Make sure not to pull the bow too tight or the Twizzler strands will break. If you are having trouble tying the Twizzler strands, make 2 loops and use a 3rd strand of Twizzler to hold them together in the middle.
- Once the white chocolate on the wreaths has set, use a small amount of melted white chocolate to attach the bow to your wreath. You may have to reheat the white chocolate. To do this, microwave at 10-second intervals again until the white chocolate is soft.
- Serve at room temperature or chilled and enjoy!
