🎄 Ingredients

• Mini pretzel sticks
• Melting chocolate (green, red, pink, or white)
• Festive holiday sprinkles
• Parchment paper
• Piping bags

🎄 Instructions

1. Prep your tray

Start by lining a baking sheet or large tray with parchment paper. Lay mini pretzel sticks vertically across the tray, spacing them an inch or so apart.

2. Melt the chocolate

Melt your candy melts according to the package instructions. You can use a microwave or double boiler—whatever you prefer. Once fully melted and smooth, transfer the chocolate into a piping bag.

3. Pipe the Christmas trees

Starting at the top of each pretzel stick, pipe the melted chocolate in a zigzag motion downward. Make each zigzag slightly wider as you go to create that classic triangle Christmas-tree shape.

This doesn’t need to be perfect—messy trees are still adorable trees!

4. Add sprinkles

Immediately sprinkle your favorite holiday sprinkles on top before the chocolate starts to harden. This is the fun part for kids to help with!

5. Let them set

Allow the chocolate to harden completely at room temperature. Once set, gently lift the pretzel trees off the parchment paper.
