"These are a little different than just chocolate dipped pretzels. I guessed at the time it takes to make these and it doesn't include the sitting time."

These were just right to satisfy my chocolate craving. I used Chow mein noodles instead of pretzels because I'm not a big fan of pretzels. These will be made again the next time I crave chocolate! Thanks for sharing:)
