No Favorite Things Thursday today.
But I have my favorite chocolate covered pretzels for you.
Theeeeeeeeeese are my favorite.
You know what they remind me of?
Samoa Girls Scout Cookies! uh-huh…they sure do.
Oh my.
Gooey caramel, chocolate and toasted coconut.
All my favorite things in one place.
It’s a happy day.
Do me a favor, if you make these, don’t be lazy and not toast the coconut.
Toasted coconut ROCKS.

Caramel and Coconut Chocolate Covered Pretzels
Ingredients
- 1 10oz. package Pretzel Rods
- 14 oz. package Caramel Candies(suck as Kraft Caramels), unwrapped
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups shredded coconut, toasted
Instructions
- Line 1 or two baking sheets with non-stick foil.
- Assemble one pretzel at a time.
- Place the caramels and water into a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth.
- Pour melted chocolate into a tall glass such as a pint glass.
- Spread a thinish layer of caramel over the pretzel, leaving about 1½” of bear pretzel at the bottom(the part you hold).
- Dip pretzel in chocolate and remove the excess by twisting the pretzel rod against the side of the glass and removing at the same time (see my video).
- Sprinkle with toasted coconut.
- Place on baking sheet and when finished with all the pretzels, place in refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
Notes
Makes about 20-25 Pretzel Rods.
To toast coconut, spread the coconut onto a cookie sheet.
Toast at 350 for about 5 minutes until golden. Stir often and keep an eye on it, it will burn quickly.
To melt chocolate, place the chocolate chips into a microwaveable bowl, cook for 1 minute. Stir. Cook again for 30 seconds. Stir. Continue cooking for 15 second increments, stirring in-between each interval until completely melted.
These are quite possibly one of the best things I’ve ever heard of.
I need a whole pile of them for breakfast!!
I think I’d like you to special delivery these to me. Tomorrow. Or Today. ASAP. They look delicious
When I saw the name of these, I knew these would be my favorite, too. Must try these.
Girl, you are speaking my language! I think we could also rename these “Bribing Sticks” don’t you think?
These are probably my favorite pretzels all week!
I still haven’t gotten on board with the whole chocolate and bacon thing. I will have to try it, one day.
