How about a little Christmas gift for friends and neighbors that takes about 5 minutes to make?  These Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels are my new favorite thing.  Go ahead and double this recipe.  It’s that good.  Package them in clear cellophane bags and tie with a pretty ribbon.


Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels

1 16-18 oz. bag of pretzels
2/3 cup canola oil
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup cinnamon sugar for sprinkling (mix your own according to your taste)
1 cup white chocolate chips

 

Whisk together oil, sugar, and cinnamon in a large measuring cup.
Pour pretzels into a microwave safe bowl and pour oil mixture in. Stir until coated. Microwave for 1 minute, remove and stir.  Microwave another minute. Spread pretzels evenly onto two cookie sheets covered in foil or parchment. While still warm, sprinkle cinnamon sugar generously. Melt white chocolate in microwave (about 30-60 seconds) and drizzle over cooled pretzels.
