Step 1

Melt the chocolate.  You can melt in a the microwave by putting chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and microwaving for 30 seconds at a time and mixing chocolate in between until chocolate is completely melted.  You can also melt chocolate using a double boiler.  Fill a medium sized pot halfway with water and bring to a boil.  Place a medium sized glass bowl over the pot and add chocolate chips.  Stir chocolate chips until melted.

Step 2

Add pretzels to the melted chocolate and stir until all the pretzels are completely coated with chocolate.  Pour chocolate mixture onto a medium sized baking sheet lined with a non-stick mat or parchment paper.  Sprinkle on coarse sea salt, if using and then place in the refrigerator until chocolate is hardened, 30 minutes – 1 hour.  Break chocolate pretzel bark apart into desired sizes and enjoy!
