Valentine's Day Pretzels with my youngest pal

So this has been our go-to holiday treat for a couple of years now. Super easy.
The goods.
chocolate chips
pretzel rods
colorful sprinkles
parchment paper

1) Melt your chocolate chips in a bowl in the microwave using 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between. I usually stop when there are a few chips left to avoid burning the chocolate. That would be tragic.
2) Using a butter knife, spread melted chocolate onto a pretzel until it covers about half of the rod.
3) Immediately cover with sprinkles while it is still melty.
4) Let pretzel cool on the parchment. (It won't stick. Promise.)
5) Told you it was easy.

Sampling the goods. We added crushed peanuts to some.

These wound up at a certain 4 year old's preschool.
