Ingredients

  • 250g white chocolate, broken into chunks
    White chocolate squares, stacked

    White chocolate

    why-t chok-lit

    To purists, this is not chocolate because it is made only from the fat or butter of the cacao…

  • 150g salted pretzel
  • 50g raisin

Method

  1. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl, set over a pan of barely simmering water, don’t allow the bowl to touch the water. Leave for a few minutes until the chocolate has melted.

  2. Open the bag of pretzels, fold it in half and cover with a tea towel. Gently smash the pretzels with a rolling pin until they’ve broken into small shards around 0.5cm in size.

  3. Pour the smashed pretzels into the melted chocolate and mix well. Stir in the raisins. Line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper. Spoon heaps of the pretzel mix onto the sheet, around 3cm across and 1cm high. Leave the bites to set in a cool place or put in the fridge until the chocolate has completely set.

  • Recipe Tip

    Make it different

    These work really well with dried cranberries too, or try using sour cherries and swap the white for milk or dark chocolate.

These were great really easy to makes with the kids! We added dried cranberries and apricots instead of the raisans and used plain choc as kids don't like white choc!

These are fantastic - so simple and easy to make, they look great and they are incredibly moreish. Made them for hampers and will definitely make again. I used dried cranberries instead of raisins, and they work really well with the white chocolate.
