**Instructions**
1. **Prepare your workspace:** Lay out a sheet of parchment paper or wax paper on a baking sheet or flat surface.
2. **Melt the chocolate:** In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your candy melts or chocolate chips according to package directions. Stir until smooth and creamy.
3. **Assemble the Pretzelwiches:**
* Take one pretzel and spread a small amount of your chosen filling on the flat side.
* Top with another pretzel, creating a “sandwich.”
* Repeat until you’ve assembled as many Pretzelwiches as you desire.
4. **Dip and cool:**
* Dip each Pretzelwich into the melted chocolate, coating about halfway or fully, as preferred.
* Gently tap off any excess chocolate.
* Place the dipped Pretzelwiches on the prepared parchment paper.
5. **Chill to set:** Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set.
6. **Enjoy!** Once set, these delightful Pretzelwiches are ready to be devoured!
**Short Tips**
* **Get creative with toppings:** Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle with sea salt, sprinkles, chopped nuts, or even a drizzle of contrasting colored chocolate.
* **Storage:** Store leftover Pretzelwiches in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator for a slightly firmer texture.
* **Microwave melting tip:** When melting chocolate chips, do so in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, to prevent burning.
* **Filling variations:** Experiment with different nut butters, flavored cream cheeses, or even a thin slice of marshmallow for a s’mores-like twist!
