Our White Chocolate Peppermint Pretzels are so easy to make and everyone will LOVE them.
Our mom used to make a plate of goodies for all her neighbors and friends and this recipe was always a favorite.
From start to finish, these don’t take more than 10 minutes to make, which is perfect, because the holidays get busy.

Add a little more peppermint to the taste:
When the white chocolate is melted, I like to add a drop of peppermint extract, to it. I mix it in and continue to dip my pretzels.
It gives it the perfect hint of holiday peppermint and it is delicious.
What could I crumble over it instead of candy canes?
If you are not a peppermint lover, no stress.
This recipe is so versatile that you could literally add any topping to it, and it would taste absolutely delicious.
Here are a few other options:
- holiday flavored Oreo’s
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
- Kit Kat bars
- sprinkles
- chopped nuts of choice
- milk chocolate drizzle
- Butterfingers
- chocolate shreds
- mini M&M’s
- gingersnap cookie crumbles
What is the best way to store these?
If you have any left over, or are making them in advance, we recommend placing them in an airtight container.
You could freeze or refrigerate them if desired, but they keep pretty well for about a week in an air-tight container on my counter or in the pantry.

Yum – thank you and Merry Christmas.
How long will these stay fresh for once you make them?
They really don’t last long around our house. But they should be good for a week or two in an airtight container.
Made these with my kids yesterday – it was the perfect easy kitchen activity for their ages (5 and 7). They had a blast, it wasn’t too messy and the treats turn out delicious and so pretty. We’re giving them to friends and neighbors as gifts. They especially had fun crushing candy canes into peppermint sprinkles! Thank you for the idea!!
So fun! Great way to involve the kids and you’ll have happy neighbors! Merry Christmas!!
So easy! So good!! A keeper for the holidays.
