Ingredients
Scale
White Chocolate Coating
- 2 cups white chocolate chips (Hershey’s Premiere White recommended)
- 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
- 1-1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
Pretzels
- 3 cups gluten free mini pretzel twists (Snyders GF recommended)
Dark Chocolate Drizzle
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (Enjoy Life recommended)
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Prep the pans: Line two half sheet pans with a silpat or parchment paper and set aside to keep the pretzels from sticking once coated.
- Melt white chocolate: Combine 2 cups white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 40 seconds and stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds and stir. If the chocolate is not fully melted, continue microwaving in 10-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth.
- Add pumpkin pie spice: Stir 1-1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice into the melted white chocolate until well combined.
- Dip pretzels: Hold a mini pretzel by the corner and dip it into the melted white chocolate, scraping the excess chocolate on the side of the bowl. Place the coated pretzels onto the prepared sheet pans.
- Reheat chocolate if needed: If the white chocolate thickens before all pretzels are coated, microwave for 15 seconds and stir until smooth again.
- Chill to set: Refrigerate the baking sheets with the coated pretzels for 15 minutes to let the chocolate harden.
- Optional dark chocolate drizzle: Melt the dark chocolate chips with 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice in a similar microwave process and drizzle over pretzels for added flavor and decoration.
- Serve: Peel the pretzels off the parchment or silpat and enjoy your tasty pumpkin spice chocolate covered pretzels.
