    I also do this with mini prezels and then sprinkle with crushed peppermint sticks or candy canes. Makes a very addictive treat! - 3/6/09

    These can also be made with the "bow" type pretzels. I have tinted the white chocolate pink for Valentine's Day. You can also dip the pretzels in melted canned frosting of any flavor. - 5/5/09

    We have made a similar thing for years, with dippng chocolate instead of chocolate chips. You can add chopped peppermint pieces or Heath Bar pieces while the chocolate is still soft for added flavor. White chocolate with red and green peppermints is really festive. - 12/13/08

    "Dipping Chocolate" is not a good grade dark chocolate. The whole point of this recipe, I thought, is to make it semi-healthful, which would call for a good grade dark chocolate. - 12/23/13

    The recipe arrived in my inbox as a "last minute edible gift." It was just what I needed. We made them early this morning. They turned out great! My son helped me (shaking on the decorative sprinkles). I had cute little holiday treat bags to put them in and tied them with some ribbon. Thank you! - 12/24/12
