Prep your setup: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay out the pretzel rods so they’re ready to go. This makes cleanup a breeze and keeps the chocolate from sticking.

Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt about ¾ of the chocolate in 20–30 second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and glossy.

Roll the pretzels: Pour the melted chocolate onto a sheet of parchment paper (yep, this trick makes coating so much easier). Working one pretzel rod at a time, roll it through the chocolate until it’s nicely coated.

Add the s’mores magic: Right away, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the chocolate and gently press mini marshmallows onto the coated part. Don’t wait too long — the chocolate needs to be melty for everything to stick!

Set the rods: Place each finished rod back onto the baking sheet and let them sit at room temp until the chocolate hardens.

Toast and drizzle (optional but fun!): If you’ve got a kitchen torch, lightly toast the marshmallows for that classic campfire flavor. Then melt the remaining chocolate and drizzle it over the top. Want to really level it up? Add a pinch of flaky salt while the drizzle is still wet.

Let them set completely: Once everything is set and the chocolate is firm, they’re ready to serve, share, or sneak straight off the tray.
