“Witch Finger” Pretzels
INGREDIENTS:
• 17-18 pretzel rods
• 1 bag (12 ounces) dark green candy melts
• 17-18 sliced almonds
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside. Break the pretzel rods so you remove about 1/4th of one end. (Snack on those while you make these:))
2) Separate the green chocolate candy melts into 3 microwave-safe bowls (makes for easier melting) and add 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil or shortening into each part. (Not essential, but makes it easier to coat the pretzels). Melt one part of the chocolate at a time. Place it in the microwave and microwave for bursts of 15 seconds stirring in between each burst for 10 seconds until the green chocolate is melted and smooth.
3) Dip the ragged end (from breaking) of the pretzel into the melted chocolate and dip about 3/4ths the way down. Use a spoon to help guide the chocolate and cover the amount you want.
4) Tap and shake the pretzel to smooth the chocolate and remove excess.
5) Place the chocolate on the prepared sheet pan.
6) Add a sliced almond to the tip of the pretzel and allow for the pretzel rods to harden at room temperature.
