Ingredients
Scale
- 40 Rolos (milk chocolate)
- 80 pretzel snaps
- 10 oz (283 g) Ghirardelli white vanilla melting wafers
- ¼ cup (60 ml) Christmas sprinkles mix
Instructions
- Preparation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange pretzel snaps in a uniform grid, creating a foundation for the treats.
- Chocolate Placement: Center an unwrapped Rolo on each pretzel, positioning for optimal melting.
- Gentle Warming: Insert the baking sheet into a preheated oven at 250°F, allowing Rolos to soften for 3-4 minutes without completely liquefying.
- Sandwich Formation: Remove the tray and gently press a second pretzel atop each softened Rolo, creating a delicate chocolate-filled sandwich.
- Cooling Phase: Transfer the pretzel assemblages to the refrigerator, allowing them to set and solidify for approximately 20 minutes.
- Chocolate Coating: Melt Ghirardelli white vanilla wafers in the microwave using defrost settings, stirring intermittently to achieve a smooth, glossy consistency.
- Dipping Process: Retrieve chilled pretzel sandwiches and immerse each halfway into the white chocolate, letting excess drip back into the container.
- Decorative Finish: Immediately sprinkle Christmas-themed garnishes over the coated treats while the chocolate remains wet.
- Final Chilling: Return the decorated morsels to the refrigerator for 10-20 minutes to ensure complete setting before serving.
Notes
- Precision Placement: Position Rolos exactly center on pretzels to ensure even melting and perfect chocolate coverage.
- Careful Heating: Watch Rolos closely during 3-4 minute oven softening to prevent burning or complete liquefaction.
- Controlled Pressure: Gently press top pretzel to create smooth, unified sandwich without crushing softened chocolate.
- Coating Technique: Use defrost microwave setting and stir white chocolate intermittently to achieve smooth, glossy consistency without scorching.
