How to Make Peppermint Pretzel Canes
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 6 ounces of almond bark (or white chocolate/vanilla candy melts) with 1 tablespoon of shortening. Stir frequently until smooth.
- Pour the melted mixture into an 11x7 inch baking pan and place the pan in a larger pan filled with hot water to keep the bark soft and fluid. (This is a double boiler method to prevent burning).
- Crush 1 cup of candy canes into small pieces and spread them on a separate sheet of parchment paper.
- Dip pretzel rods (approximately 12-15 depending on size) into the melted almond bark, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Allow excess bark to drip off before rolling the pretzel in the crushed candy canes.
- Place the coated pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
- Let the pretzels stand at room temperature until the bark is completely set (approximately 15-20 minutes).
