Instructions
 

  • Line a small rimmed baking pan with parchment paper for the candy coating. Line a second tray with parchment paper for the finished pretzels. Break each pretzel rod in half.
  • Melt the candy melts according to package instructions until smooth, then pour into the parchment-lined rimmed pan. Let it settle into a thick puddle.
  • Roll each pretzel half in the melted candy, making sure the snapped end is completely coated. Tap gently to remove excess.
  • Press a sliced almond onto the tip of each coated pretzel to form the fingernail, then place on the second tray.
  • Chill the pretzels in the fridge for about 5 minutes, just until the coating is semi-set but still soft.
  • Use a toothpick to draw knuckle lines into the coating.
  • Return to the fridge or let sit at room temperature until the candy coating is fully set before serving or storing.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
