Recipe Introduction


Use either twisted pretzels, pretzel sticks, candy canes or sticks for these great gifts. You can substitute semisweet chocolate for the white chocolate chips if you like - or use a combination of both for a marbled effect


List of Ingredients




1 cup vanilla milk chips
1 tsp. solid shortening
candy canes or pretzels
edible glitter, decorating sugars, crushed peppermint candies


Recipe



Melt together chocolate chips and shortening over very low heat or in microwave on low power, stirring frequently until smooth. Dip candy canes into melted chocolate mixture, then immediately sprinkle with glitter, crushed candy or decorating sugars.


Place upside down in a clean cup and let sit until chocolate firms.


You can package these coated treats in a clear coffee mug and wrap the whole thing in cellophane with a big red bow.
