Making chocolate covered pretzels is basically the same as dipping chocolate, so this could be applied to say chocolate dipped strawberries or anything else.  I looked at many recipes before trying it myself.  Some added cream or shortening.  I have found adding anything to the chocolate is not necessary.

Here's what I did:

Prep:
Have cookie sheets covered with wax paper ready.  Create a double boiler with a glass or metal bowl over a pot with water.

Directions

1. Temper chocolate.
2.  Add pretzels to the bowl, stir until they are all covered in chocolate,
3.  Using a fork place the pretzel on the wax covered cookie sheet.
4. Let set, probably will take 2-5 min.
5. Store covered in a cool place for up to a few weeks or freeze in a prex freezeable glass container, or plastic bag.
