1

Cover a cookie sheet with wax paper. Place the pretzels on the wax paper close together but not quite touching.

2

Place the chocolate chips in a small microwavable bowl and microwave on High, stirring every 15 seconds, until the chocolate is melted and smooth, about 1 minute.

3

Using a small spoon or flat 3/8-inch paint brush (a clean one, of course!), drizzle and splatter the chocolate over the pretzels using a back and forth motion.

4

Refrigerate 3 minutes or until the chocolate is firm, or allow the chocolate to firm up at room temperature, about 3 hours.

5

Yields 7 pretzels per serving.
