Notes

Storage:

Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Variations:

Chocolate

While the vanilla candy melts flavor is delicious, you could try using dark or milk chocolate instead of melting wafers for a classic cocoa flavor!

Sprinkles

If you’d like to add even more color, try adding sprinkles to your eggs! Simply choose whatever sprinkles you like, and add them right after dipping the pretzel rounds. This will make them adhere nicely to your mini Easter eggs.

Pretzels

Another option would be to try switching out the type of pretzels you use for different shapes and sizes! You could use pretzel twists, mini pretzels, or even pretzel rods.
