Directions
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and shortening together on medium power. Stir every 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Dip each pretzel into the chocolate mixture, making sure to cover most of the pretzel. Shake off the excess chocolate.
Place the chocolate-covered pretzels onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Add your choice of toppings while the chocolate is still wet. Consider using sprinkles for a pop of color, crushed nuts for added crunch, or a drizzle of melted white chocolate for a visually appealing contrast.
Allow the chocolate to harden fully before moving or storing. This process can be quickened by placing the pretzels in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Enjoy your homemade Chocolate Covered Pretzels!
