Ingredients

  • 12 nutter butter cookies
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 4 tbsp chocolate sprinkles
  • 6 pretzel sticks

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat, then break (or carefully cut) nutter butter cookies in half crosswise.
  • Pour the sprinkles into a small bowl and set aside. Add your chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl, then microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.
  • Dip the cut side of each nutter butter cookie about ¼ of the way into the melted chocolate, then immediately into the bowl of chocolate sprinkles.
  • Break each pretzel stick into 4 pieces, then place a piece of pretzel stick into the center of the cookie edge. You may need to shift the sprinkles slightly to make space.
  • If the pretzel piece won’t stick, dip one end of the pretzel stick into the melted chocolate and attach again. Then place onto your prepared baking sheet.
  • Transfer to the fridge or freezer to set the chocolate before enjoying!
