Description
These Acorn Donut Holes are a delightful treat, featuring glazed donut holes dipped in chocolate and decorated with sprinkles and pretzels. Perfect for gatherings or a sweet snack!
Ingredients
Scale
- 20 glazed donut holes
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
- 10–20 pretzel sticks
- ¾ cup chocolate jimmies sprinkles
Instructions
- Snap long pretzel sticks in half to use only 10, if needed.
- In a small bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Pour the chocolate sprinkles into a separate bowl and set it nearby.
- Dip the top of each donut hole into the melted chocolate, scraping off excess, then immediately dip into the sprinkles.
- Gently press a pretzel stick into the chocolate-covered tip of the donut hole to create the acorn stem, avoiding knocking off the sprinkles.
- Place the finished donut holes on a parchment-lined tray, and repeat with the rest.
- Chill in the fridge or freezer for 5 minutes to let the chocolate set, or enjoy them right away while melty.
Notes
Use mini pretzel sticks for a more detailed acorn look.
