2 Mins read

Chocolate Pretzel Christmas Trees are a simple, festive treat perfect for holiday celebrations. With just a few ingredients, you can create delightful mini Christmas trees that are fun to make with family or for holiday parties. These sweet-salty snacks combine the crunch of pretzels with creamy chocolate, making them an instant favorite.

Chocolate Pretzel Christmas Trees Ingredients

Pretzel Sticks: These form the “trunk” of each tree and add a salty crunch.

Dark or White Chocolate Chips: Use your favorite chocolate, and consider using natural green dye for added color.

Holiday Sprinkles: Adds the final festive touch! These are some of my favorite dye-free Christmas sprinkles: Supernatural Christmas Softies, Supernatural Red Sanding Sugar, Watkins Green Decorating Sugar

Tips For Perfect Chocolate Pretzel Christmas Trees

Piping Bag: Use a piping bag or plastic bag with a small cut to control chocolate drizzles.

Cooling: Set in the fridge to speed up the chocolate hardening process.

Enjoy Immediately: If you are using white chocolate, they melt quickly, so I recommend enjoying them soon after they come out of the fridge.

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place pretzel sticks spaced apart.
  • Using a ziploc bag with a small corner cut off or piping bag, drizzle chocolate back and forth over each pretzel in a triangle shape to mimic a tree.
  • While the chocolate is still warm, add sprinkles as “ornaments” and a star-shaped sprinkle on top if desired.
  • Allow the trees to set on the baking sheet until the chocolate hardens. Enjoy!
