sweet temptations–family style holiday treats

I know, it’s the holidays and that means standing in line at the post office baking delectable goodies for friends and postal workers who’ll let you cut in line family.

But oh, do I have a tip for you! And little Johnny!

Forget the oven, those pain-in-the-a$$ muffin tins and buying more flour.

Make these!

Okay, you can probably make them better, prettier, and with less mess. (Just to clarify, the Kid DID help with these. A lot.)

You only need chocolate chips, or heck, any chip-like item that is meltable in the microwave. Preferably not Legos. And a bag of pretzel rods.

YOU melt the chips, preferably dark chocolate if I might be your gift recipient whatever flavor you’ve chosen. Little Johnny gets to hold the pretzels and smear melted chocolate on his face, fingers and elbows the pretzel. Follow with sprinkling like he’s a confetti-celebrating fool at a New Year’s Eve party.

Mix and mingle chocolates for a jingly treat!

Sure, you overachievers could use a spatula for the smearing of chocolate part of the process. But you stupid idiot that would allow you scrape clean the entire bowl of melted chocolate for these pretzels.

Which reaches a different result from the grilling forks we used.

Enjoy!

  1. What a GREAT idea! Right up my alley. I’m going to try them out for a party this weekend. Thanks!

  2. This sugar/salt combo is a REAL crowd pleaser, I am finding out. Debate now is: share/hoard? share/hoard? share/hoard?
