Preparation Time10 min
Ingredients
- 1 (10-ounce) package large pretzel rods
- 2 (4-ounce) bars of white chocolate
- 1 box Betty Crocker Fruit by the Foot Variety pack (contains 6 rolls, 0.75-ounce each)
Instructions
- Using a microwave-safe container, place chocolate in microwave at medium (50 percent) power for 1 to 11/2 minutes. Remove and stir. If not melted, return to microwave and repeat heating step, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent scorching.
- Dip pretzels in melted chocolate. Place on wax paper to dry. (Optional: Remove 1/4 cup of the melted chocolate and mix with a small amount of orange food coloring; stir thoroughly. Using a tablespoon, pour a thin line of orange icing back and forth over the white chocolate-dipped sticks).
- Unwrap a Fruit by the Foot roll. Cut off a 1-inch piece, fray the ends with kitchen scissors, wrap around the bottom of the pretzel. Wrap tightly and squeeze to adhere. Makes 12 broomsticks.
