What You'll Need

  • Pretzel twists or rods 🥨
  • Dark and white chocolate (for melting) 🍫
  • Pink and red sprinkles ❤️
  • Optional: Crushed nuts, dried fruits, or edible glitter ✨
  • Non-stick parchment for baking 📜
  • Spoons or spatulas 🥄

Let's Get Started:

  1. Prepare Your Supplies:

    • Lay out your pretzels on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    • Arrange your sprinkles, chocolate, and any additional toppings you'd like to use in separate bowls for easy access.
  2. Melt the Chocolate:

    • In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt your dark and white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
  3. Dip & Twist:

    • Take a pretzel and dip it into the melted chocolate of your choice, making sure to coat it evenly. Use a spoon or spatula to gently tap off any excess chocolate.
    • Twist the chocolate-coated pretzel over the bowl to let any excess chocolate drip off.
  4. Sprinkle Some Love:

    • While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle on the pink and red sprinkles (and any other toppings you desire). Get creative with the patterns!
  5. Set & Harden:

    • Place the pretzels back on the parchment-lined sheet and allow them to set until the chocolate hardens. You can speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.
  6. Package with Love:

    • Once the pretzels are set, transfer them to cute Valentine's Day-themed bags or boxes. Tie them with ribbons or include a sweet note for an extra touch of love. Or place them on a heart-shaped plate to enjoy immediately!
  7. Spread Joy:

    • Share these adorable love knots at your Valentine's Day party, or distribute them as sweet party favors for your kid's classroom events. They're not only delicious but also a healthier alternative to traditional sugary treats.
