How do you make chocolate coating for pretzels,etc?

I would do the same thing as an above poster.

Melt the chocolate, you could use milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate. That is one of my favorite snacks is white chocolate over pretzels, mmmm :)

Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler (or in a bowl on top of a pot of boiling water, if you don't have a double boiler). Dip the pretzels in the chocolate using a fork, then transfer to a sheet of wax paper to harden. (If you don't heat them over boiling water, the chocolate can burn. Water won't reach anything higher than 212 degrees F.)

I also know a great recipe for pecan turtles. Place mini pretzels on a baking sheet covered in foil. Top each one with a Rolo candy, then a cashew. Bake at 350 until the chocolate melts, about 7 minutes. Cool until they harden. So yummy!

You can use any chocolate chip you have. Melt on stove top with very low heat. Slowly is the trick and take off heat as soon as melted. Or in microwave again slow and stirring at often intervals.

Stir in pretzels, nuts, marshmallows... whatever you want.

Lay them out on wax paper or cookie sheet to cool.

You can also try peanut butter chips or white chocolate...Easy and Good

buy alomond bark chocolate bars in the baking section of grocery store.If you have a double boiler use it. if not, get a pot of water boiling and place a pot on top of it. One that is not small enough to fall in. Place your chocolate in the top pot and the boiling water melts it with out burning it. Melts faster if you break chocolate into peices. Once all melted throw some pretzels in and pull them out woth fork. Let chocolate run off and set on wax paper to dry. Repeat until chocolate is gone.

In the store buy what is called almond bark......it is specifically for this and you just chip off however much you need melt it in the microwave according to package directions.......it is fun to buy the white and the milk chocolate and then use one to dip the pretzel in and the other to use a spoon and splatter to decorate makes them really pretty and too much chocolate is never a problem for us!

Heat semi-sweet chocolate chips in a double boiler or heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth.

To microwave, place chocolate in a microwave proof dish and melt 1/2-1 cup chips on medium (50%) 3-4 1/2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Dip pretzels with a fork and remove to wax paper. Refrigerate uncovered until chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes. Store, loosely covered in a cool, dry place or freeze in an airtight container.

your should buy fondue chocolate melts and follow the way to melt it, you can buyy it in different colors, and flavors, it taste alot better than bitter bakers chocolate

also if you use the chocolate chips or whatever it burns and gets really gross not a good idea

use a try employing a sifter over a bowl. place the nuts interior the sifter, place the sifter over a bowl, and pour the chocolate over the nuts, mutually as shaking the sifter. that's tiring, yet once you shake sufficient, you will get the outcomes you're searching for. Or, in case you have something that would shake it for you (like an choppy washer)
