That sounds delicious! After melting the 12 oz of white chocolate chips, here’s a simple recipe for a beloved Christmas candy: **White Chocolate Pretzel Clusters**.
Ingredients:
– 12 oz white chocolate chips (melted)
– 2 cups pretzel sticks or mini pretzels
– 1 cup crushed candy canes or sprinkles (optional)
– Sea salt (optional)
Instructions:
1. **Melt the Chocolate:** Follow the microwave or double boiler method to melt the white chocolate chips until smooth.
2. **Combine Pretzels:** In a large bowl, add the pretzels to the melted chocolate. Stir until the pretzels are evenly coated.
3. **Form Clusters:** Use a spoon to scoop clusters of the chocolate-coated pretzels onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
4. **Add Toppings:** If desired, sprinkle crushed candy canes or sprinkles on top of the clusters while the chocolate is still wet. A light sprinkle of sea salt can add a nice contrast, too!
5. **Cool:** Let the clusters sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or refrigerate for faster setting.
6. **Enjoy:** Once set, break apart any clusters that have stuck together, and enjoy your festive treat!
These are easy to make and always a hit during the holidays!
