Ingredients:

  • 12 oz chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp refined coconut oil
  • Pretzels
  • 2 oz contrasting chocolate for drizzling
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Check that all bowls and utensils are completely dry. <small>Note: Even a single drop of water will cause the chocolate to seize and turn grainy.</small>
  3. Combine 12 oz of chocolate chips and 1 tbsp of refined coconut oil in a microwave safe glass bowl.
  4. Heat the mixture in 30 second intervals at 50% power.
  5. Stir vigorously between each interval. Stop heating when small lumps remain and let the residual heat finish the job.
  6. Submerge a pretzel into the melted chocolate using a dipping fork.
  7. Lift the pretzel and gently tap the fork against the bowl's edge until the excess chocolate stops dripping.
  8. Place the coated pretzel onto the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Melt the 2 oz of contrasting chocolate and drizzle it until a thin, elegant pattern forms.
  10. Sprinkle with sea salt and let sit 30 minutes until the surface is firm and matte glossy.
