Disney Villains Cookbook Pretzels

Hypnotizing Snake Staffs

These Caramel and Chocolate Covered Pretzel Rods are easy to make and you can do a lot with them! As a quick snack, these can be as easy as microwaving some chocolate chips and dipping pretzels! As a more decadent treat, you can add the caramel and sprinkles to really go all out. This treat is meant to be Jafar’s Staff. We used gold sprinkles, per the recipe, but you could really dress these up for any Disney Villain just by changing the color of the sprinkles! 

Prep: 10 minutes

Cook: 30 minutes

Yield 12 pieces

Ingredients

  • 1/4 c butter 
  • 1 c. granulated sugar
  • 1/2 c. light corn syrup
  • 6 oz evaporated milk
  • 12 pretzel rods
  • 2 c. chocolate cups
  • Red and Gold fancy sprinkles and candy pieces

Instructions

Prepare the Caramel: In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, combine the butter, sugar, corn syrup. Bring to boil, stirring frequently. 

Slowly, pour in the evaporated milk. Stir constantly to make sure every ounce is incorporated. Make sure the caramel sauce is boiling the entire time. Cook and stir until the caramel becomes a soft ball. Test the firmness by using a candy thermometer ( 235 degrees). If you go over this temperature the caramel will be more difficult to work with, so plan on stirring constantly and pull from the heat as soon as it reaches 235 degrees. 

Once removed, allow to cool for 5 minutes. Line a work surface with parchment paper. Dip each pretzel 2/3rd into the caramel, using a spoon if necessary. Place each on the parchment paper.  

In a small glass bowl, microwave the chocolate chips for 30 seconds, check, and then heat just a little bit more to completely melt. Be very careful with this step. Chocolate chips can easily burn. Stir until totally smooth. 

Dip the pretzels ( covered in caramel) into the chocolate, place on parchment. Once they’re all covered, and while still warm cover with your choice of candy sprinkles. Cool and enjoy!
