Chocolate Prezel Candy

I have been trying to watch my diet. Nothing crazy, just sensible meals to get back to pre holiday weight. I love having a sweet treat after meals and I hit the jackpot. My daughter read an article stating that having a small dessert after meals actually tells your mind that you are done eating. By finishing with a meal with something sweet, your palate feels complete and you are satisfied. Awesome, something in writing that allows me to splurge a little.


I had some pretzels and chocolate chips in the pantry so I thought a small candy would be perfect. These little candies were easy, quick and great tasting.


Chocolate Pretzel Candy


1/3 bag of pretzels
1 ½ cups chocolate chips, I used bittersweet
Mini candy cups

Crush the pretzels in a plastic bag

Melt chocolate in microwave, approximately 1 ½ minutes

Stir pretzels into melted chocolate

Spoon into candy cups, I put the cups in a mini muffin pan

Place candy in fridge til set


Yield: 24 pieces of candy
