Heart Rods

















Heart Rods
  • Pretzel rods
  • Almond bark (or chocolate bark)
  • Peanut butter (optional)
  • Heart sprinkles
  • Plastic wrap
  • Ribbon


Put the almond bark in a glass jar.  Melt the almond bark in the jar in a microwave oven.  Stir in one heaping tablespoon of peanut butter for each cup of melted almond bark.  Dip one end of the pretzel rod in the almond bark mixture.  Let the excess drip back into the jar.  (Tilt the jar to one side to cover more of the pretzel.) Leave one end uncoated to make it less messy to eat. Drop sprinkles onto the coated pretzel rods.  Place on wax paper to cool.  Cover with plastic wrap and tie with a ribbon.

To use up any left over almond bark, drop a teaspoon of the mixture into a cupcake holder.  Place three peanut butter filled pretzel squares on top.  Spoon more almond bark over these and add two more pretzel squares.  Top with more almond bark.  Let set.
Parents show their love for their children by correcting their behavior.

Proverbs 13:24-He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
 If you spare the rod, you spoil the child! ☺
