Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shortening
- 4 cups small pretzel twists or pieces
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on 50% power for 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely smooth. This usually takes 1 to 2 minutes total.
- Add the pretzels to the melted chocolate mixture. Gently fold the pretzels into the chocolate until they are evenly coated.
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small clusters.
- Refrigerate the clusters for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can stir in 1/2 cup of chopped peanuts or mini M&Ms with the pretzels.
- If you prefer a drizzle, melt 2 ounces of white chocolate separately and drizzle it over the set clusters before the final chill.
- Store the finished clusters in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
