Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Melt the white and dark chocolate melting discs in separate microwave-safe bowls at 50% power for 30 seconds, stirring after each until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Dip mini pretzel twists into the melted chocolate until fully coated, tap off excess, and lay on a wax-paper-lined tray to cool for about 3 minutes.
  3. Melt additional white chocolate if needed and use a piping bag to create small faces on each dipped pretzel, adding candy eyes and pink heart sprinkles for noses. Chill for 2 minutes.
  4. Dip remaining pretzels fully in white chocolate, sprinkle with white nonpareil sprinkles before it sets, then pipe dark chocolate for faces and attach candy eyes. Refrigerate until firm.
  5. For festive sprinkle pretzels, dip them in chocolate and add sprinkles before it sets or let the coating firm first and drizzle contrasting melted chocolate on top.
  6. Chill all pretzels in the refrigerator for an additional 10 minutes to ensure decorations set properly and enjoy!
