Fun Reindeer Bark (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 20 mini pretzel twists.
02 - 2 teaspoons of coconut oil or shortening (if melting chocolate chips).
03 - Holiday-themed sprinkles (optional).
04 - 20 candy eyeballs.
05 - 2 cups of melted chocolate (like almond bark or chips).
06 - 10 red M&Ms for decoration.

# Instructions:

01 - Cover a baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - Snap pretzel twists into halves to create antlers.
03 - Microwave the chocolate in short 30-second bursts, stirring each time.
04 - Drizzle and spread melted chocolate on the parchment to form a thin layer, about 1/8 inch.
05 - Arrange the broken pretzels as antlers, stick candy eyes and red M&Ms for the face, and press lightly to secure.
06 - Sprinkle holiday decorations on top for extra flair (if you want).
07 - Chill in the fridge for about 30 to 45 minutes until the chocolate sets firmly.
08 - Break or neatly cut around the reindeer faces to serve.

# Notes:

01 - Grab extra pretzels because breaking them perfectly into antlers isn’t always easy.
02 - For smoother melting with chocolate chips, toss in coconut oil or shortening.
03 - Store in the fridge or a cool spot and enjoy within a week.
