Helpful Supplies To Make Christmas Pretzel Treats
These are some of the kitchen tools and supplies you may need for these recipes. For your convenience, I’ve added shop-able ad links. Read our disclosure policy here.
- Microwave-safe bowls – for melting the chocolate
- Baking sheet – for arranging your pretzel treats in a single layer to dry
- Parchment paper – to keep the holiday pretzels from sticking to the baking sheet
- Silicone baking mat – a reusable alternative to parchment paper (we love them!)
How To Store Pretzel Christmas Treats
Another great thing about making pretzel treats is that they keep for a long time, much longer than cookies usually!
All you need to do is store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay good for a couple weeks. You can also freeze them for longer term storage.
