How to make chocolate-dipped pretzels for the holiday season. Christmas pretzel rods decorated in 7 easy holiday ideas – including Grinch pretzels, snowman pretzels, reindeer pretzels, and more!

Christmas pretzels make a great addition to a Christmas Dessert Board, paired with Muddy Buddies, and Rolo Pretzels.

After trying out Halloween pretzel rods and Thanksgiving pretzel rods, we had to come up with Christmas-themed pretzels. The kids have a lot of fun making these chocolate-covered treats.

The combination of the salty pretzel and sweet chocolate makes this a tasty dessert to enjoy while drinking hot cocoa. Adding holiday sprinkles makes this treat extra festive and fabulous to add to a neighbor’s gift.
