FAQs
Can I use regular pretzels instead of waffle pretzels?
Yes, regular pretzels can be used, but waffle pretzels hold the chocolate better due to their shape and texture.
What is the best way to prevent the chocolate from melting too much in the oven?
Bake at a low temperature (250°F) and monitor closely. Remove from the oven as soon as the chocolate starts melting to avoid it becoming too runny.
