Ingredients

4 cups mini pretzels
2 cups chocolate chips (dark, milk, or white)
1 cup green candy melts
1 cup assorted candies (M&Ms, sprinkles, etc.)
1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Stack three mini pretzels on top of one another to form Christmas trees on the baking sheet.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in intervals until smooth.
Dip each pretzel tree into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off before placing it back on the baking sheet.
While the chocolate is still wet, decorate with assorted candies.
Chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes until set.
Melt green candy melts and drizzle over each tree for added decoration.
