Healthy After School Snacks: Frosted Pretzel Sticks

We know how hungry kids can get after a long day at school or daycare but you should really think it twice before you hand your child a sucker or a bag of potato chips. Instead try this! Today we will learn how to make this yummy snack for your kid(s) not only is it healthier but its crunchy and yummy too! Plus your child can help in making these snack!

You will need:

• Pretzel Rods
• Sprinkles (your choice) 
• White or Pink Frosting

1. The first thing we need to do is put frosting in a small container.  Add a tiny bit of water at a time, mixing well, to get a slightly thinner consistency.  You want the frosting to stick to the pretzel sticks but not in a blobby way.
2. Dip the end of the pretzel rod into the frosting, coating the top third or even half of the pretzel.  Tap pretzel a few times, against inside of mug, to remove excess but make sure the pretzel is coated. 
3. Immediately shake sprinkles onto the coating and then set uncoated end in another mug, or lay across a small bowl, leaving the coating set until hardened.
4. When coating are completely set, you can then package for giving.  To serve at your party, just arrange pretzel rods in a container, coated ends up. You can have lots of fun decorating it and making them unique! Enjoy!
