Chocolate Dipped Bacon Pretzels

This Sweet & Salty Treat is Great for National Milk Chocolate Day

Author of Simply Designing Ashley Phipps has published a divine recipe to celebrate National Milk Chocolate Day. While chocolate is the sweetest part of this recipe, Phipps combines it with pretzels and bacon to add some savory flavoring.

This recipe for chocolate dipped bacon pretzels is fairly easy to make. Start by cooking bacon until it's crispy and then crumble it into pieces. Melt some milk chocolate, either over the stove or in the microwave. Using thick pretzel sticks, dip the top half into the melted chocolate and roll the sticks through the bacon crumble.

The result is a sweet and savory treat that pays tribute to National Milk Chocolate Day. These sweet and crunchy snacks can be stored in the fridge in a zip lock bag, which keeps them fresh and ready to munch on.
