Directions

  1. Take the black candy stripes and cut 24 stripes to 1.5 inches.
  2. Take your edible adhesive (you can use any type of edible adhesive you’d like…frosting, chocolate, etc.) and line one side of the belt buckle. Place buckle in the middle of the black candy strip. Let those dry. Santa Snacks / a fun Santa Coat Treat that's easy to make for the holidays
  3. Now take your red candy discs and put in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue to do this until discs are all melted.
  4. Dip each pretzel in the red chocolate. Get a nice even coat and lay on parchment lined cookie sheet. (If chocolate is a little thick then just take a small knife and spread around the top of the pretzel to get that nice coat). Santa Snacks / a fun Santa Coat Treat that's easy to make for the holidays
  5. Add the belt to each pretzel as you take them out of the chocolate. Let dry for about 10-15 minutes. Santa Snacks / a fun Santa Coat Treat that's easy to make for the holidays
