Ingredients
12Large pretzel rods
12ozGreen Candy Melts
Holiday sprinkles
Instructions
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or non-stick silicone baking mats.
Arrange pretzel rods on the baking sheets, about 3-4 inches apart.
Melt green candy according to directions on package and pour into a plastic bag. Cut one corner off the bag so it functions like a piping bag.
Pipe the melted candy on top of the pretzels, using a zig-zag motion. Start at the top of the tree and work your way down, making your lines larger as you get closer to the bottom of the pretzel, so the green candy looks like a Chrsitasm tree shape. Leave 1/2 inch to an inch at the bottom to be the the tree stump.
While candy is still wet, coat with holiday sprinkles.
