How to Make Cinnamon Roll Pretzels

These are so easy, fun, and delicious!

Step 1: Coat the pretzels

Melt the butter for about 30 seconds in the microwave. Let it cool slightly, then pour it into a large zip-top bag. Add the pretzels and shake until they’re evenly coated.

Step 2: Add the cinnamon sugar

In a separate zip-top bag, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Transfer the butter-coated pretzels into this bag and shake until well coated.

Step 3: Bake and drizzle

Spread the coated pretzels onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Melt the white chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl using the defrost setting for 2 minutes. Stir, then heat for another 90 seconds until fully melted and smooth.

Drizzle the white chocolate over the pretzels. Let dry completely, then break into clusters and serve.
