Technically the title of this treat should be — Peppermint milk-chocolate drizzled white-chocolate-covered pretzels. But, that seems a bit much to try to fit. So, I made sure to include all the necessary adjectives…peppermint and chocolate-covered. That seems to be the most important and I’m all about Peppermint and Chocolate together! So, Peppermint Chocolate-covered Pretzels, it is.

These are really easy to make, don’t require fancy tools, and let me tell you—taste amazing!! No really, ah-mahz-ing! With an extra z-ing! And they are one of those great holiday sweets that works really well as a gift. Make a a bunch of these, package them up in a cute tin or even just a plain box, and gift them to your neighbors, teachers, etc. Everyone will appreciate these as gifts, and you won’t have to go crazy spending a ton of money. And these chocolate covered pretzels are certainly easier to make than traditional fudge or truffles!!!
