we tend to keep valentine's day pretty low key around our house. we usually skip the overpriced dinners at crowded restaurants on february 14th and instead stay at home and make a nice meal together. we like exchanging handmade cards and keeping things simple.
over the weekend i decided to make ryan a little valentine treat. i used mini pretzels and chocolate that we already had in our kitchen to make chocolate-dipped pretzels. (ryan is a big fan of chocolate covered pretzels.)
there is hardly a "recipe" for this. all i did was melt white chocolate and dark chocolate, dip the pretzels in the melted chocolate, and then decorate them with red and white sprinkles, red sugar, and white nonpareils. super easy.
once the chocolate set, i put the dipped pretzels in a little bag, tied it up with a ribbon, and decorated it with a label. if your looking to make a simple, easy, and inexpensive treat for your valentine, chocolate-dipped pretzels are just about as easy as you can get.
happy valentine's day!
love, laurie
