Notes

  • Keep chocolate warm while working - reheat briefly if it starts to thicken.
  • If chocolate gets too thick, microwave for 10 seconds and stir.
  • Work in small batches so the chocolate doesn't set before adding the pretzel.
  • Don't refrigerate longer than 10 minutes to avoid condensation.
