I am a cookies & cream lover!!!  Add salty, crunchy pretzels and you have an out of this world match. These Cookies & Cream Pretzels are super quick and simple to throw together, and are a perfect holiday snack or gift! I just made a batch for my family’s treat while we decorate the house for Christmas. 

Other recipes I have seen and tried for pretzels similar to these, do NOT have enough oreo to them. A tiny sprinkle of crumbs just doesn’t cut it for Cookies & Cream Pretzels. My recipe is done in 2 layers, to help sandwich those cookie crumbs in between 2 layers of chocolate, ensuring you get some cookie in each bite.

Add a drizzle of bright red chocolate to give it that holiday cheer!

I started by spreading the pretzels out on a large baking sheet.

Once my chocolate was melted, I spread it thinly over the pretzels and then sprinkled all the crushed oreos on. This may seem a bit strange, but then I completely mixed the pretzels, chocolate and oreos together and spread them back out on the sheet. This will keep all that oreo ‘stuck’ in the chocolate. Mmmmmm.

After I let it cool and harden slightly, I spread another layer of white chocolate over the entire pan, and sprinkled more oreos on top. Add a nice drizzle of red, let it harden and break it into pieces!
