More tips for you

1. It is not uncommon for the melted butter to be too thick to coat the pretzel. A quick fix to this is to add a small (one teaspoon) amount of melted coconut oil to thin out the consistency of the chocolate.
2. If your chocolate starts to get too thick when dipping, simply reheat it in the microwave for 15 seconds. Then stir the melted chocolate.
3. My pretzels have a colorful unicorn-ish icing drizzled over them. You can use already made icing in a tube to do this.

How to make Easy Unicorn Pretzels

Servings: 8-10 depending on the pretzels you use.
Prep time: 5 minutes.
Active time: 15 minutes
Dry time: 20 minutes.

Step One: prepare.

Line one or two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Select pretzels that are whole and in good condition.

Step Two: melt the chocolate.

It is always best to follow the directions on the packaging for how to melt the chocolate.

I like to place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until melted, stopping every 15-30 seconds to stir for even melting.

Once the chocolate has fully melted, stir in the optional coconut oil until you get a good consistency.

Place the melted chocolate in a bowl that can be used for dipping into if the bowl that you used to melt in is not suitable.

Expert tip👉 For larger unicorn decorations, you can use a dab of fondant or icing to attach them to the pretzels.

Step Three: decorate the pretzels.

Carefully use a fork in one hand to pick up the first pretzel. You can use a spoon if your pretzels are not looped. Dip each of the pretzels into the chocolate and using a spoon in the other hand, guide the melted chocolate around the pretzel. Then give the pretzel a quick shake over the bowl to release any dripping chocolate. Place the pretzel on to the prepared baking sheet. It may be a good idea to add the sprinkles white the chocolate is still soft.

When all of the pretzels are covered in chocolate you can add any optional toppings (icing, melted colorful chocolate, etc.) and then refrigerate (10-15 minutes) until the chocolate is hard before serving.
