I had the same lumping and not sticking problems as a lot of people. I think the amount of liquid is off. I ended adding a lot more cream, and finally got something sort of reasonable, but still really thick. I ended up just 'scooping' the chocolate onto one side of the pretzels. Still searching for a great recipe for my favorite treat!

I did NOT use the heavy cream. I just added a tsp. of shortening instead, like I would if I was making my peanut butter cracker sandwiches dipped in chocolate. After we finished dipping the pretzles, we sprinkled crushed candy canes over the top. Huge hit. NOTE: We didn't even get half of a bag of mini pretzels covered with the chocolate that was called for in this recipe. It wasn't a big deal for us because we were just monkeying around in the kitchen. If you want a whole bag to actually be done in this recipe, you'll want to use double or triple the amount of chocolate chips called for in this recipe.

i used chocolate coating bark. and a little oil, and the big prezel rounds. very easy! i used a meat fork to to dip them.. got about 25 perfect ones. and with the bnot so perfect peices, i broke up in a plastic bag and the extra chocolate. i made a prezel and chocolate bar, that you can break up into chunks

i skipped the heavy whipping cream, but this recipe was wonderful anyway. I even went so far as to coat some in peanut butter and then chocolate and they were fantastic!

I used heavy whipping cream and the chocolate was not usable. The mixture clumped into a ball, no longer useful for dipping. This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients.

This recipe did not work for me. I melted the chips and cream together and got a solid mess of chocolate. Tried again melting chips first and then added cream - again a solid mess. You can't dip pretzels in a solid mess.

I used 1/4 cup milk instead of the cream and a tablespoon or so of NaVan (vanilla liqueur). I tossed all the pretzels in and picked them out with chopsticks, as another reviewer did. I believe the cream is supposed to give it a richer taste. Very good, and I will use this recipe again.
