Let’s Make it together

Melt the Chocolate: Start by melting your chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy.
Dip the Pretzels: Grab those mini pretzels and dip them into the melted chocolate using a fork. Ensure each pretzel is fully coated before letting excess chocolate drip off.
Set on Wax Paper: Place each dipped pretzel onto a sheet of wax paper. Spread them out so they don’t stick together as they cool down.
Add Bunny Details: While the chocolate is still warm, use melted white chocolate to add little bunny ears and attach edible eyes for personality!
Chill to Set: Pop your tray of pretzels into the fridge for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate sets completely a perfect time for you to grab a snack yourself!
Enjoy!: Once set, serve these delightful treats at your next gathering or keep them all to yourself no judgment here!
