This isn’t much of a recipe per say. Dipping pretzels in chocolate is pretty easy, the difference here is adding the cake mix to the chocolate (candy melts)! Pretzel Rod’s aren’t my favorite treat, but The Reader INHALES these! She seriously loves these soooo much (and I love something tall on my table)
Cake Batter & Sprinkles Pretzels
Course: Desserts
Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 10 oz guittard white vanilla apeels
- 2 Tbsp Cake mix
- Sprinkles
- Pretzel rods
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate and mix in the cake mix until the cake mix is dissolved.
- It should be thick, if it's too runny it will run right off!
- Dip pretzels and shake off the excess chocolate.
- Sprinkle on sprinkles.
As far as Pretzel rod’s go these are pretty tasty. I kinda want to add some cake mix to some CHOCOLATE chocolate melts and see what I think (salty and sweet… Mmmm).

Hi! Kindly tell me what is pretzel sticks? I didn’t see them what can we use instead of them?
Ashlee Prisbrey
These are actually pretzel RODS, and you can’t really sub them out, as this recipe is all about the pretzel rods! without the rods your just left with melted chocolate and sprinkles!
Sandra
There is no “yield” or number of pretzel rods, how many rods will this amount of cake mix/chocolate will coat. Thank you
Ashlee
because you need the chocolate to be deep you end up wasting quite a bit of chocolate. I probably made about half a bag before I needed to add more chocolate? but it also depends on how much you shake off. Sorry, I never stopped to count!
Dee

Hello! Thank you for sharing your receipe. I wanted to ask how long you think this will be good til, until it gets stale?
I want to make this for friend’s sister’s baby shower, but i would have to ship it from VA to CA.
Ashlee
kinda depends on where you live – humidity levels and such. but it all just comes down to the pretzels – once you open a bag how long do pretzel sticks last for you where you live normally?
Elise
Is it ok to eat the cake batter without properly cooking it?
Ashlee Marie
there is no raw batter in these – it’s a dry cake mix that gives it the “cake batter” flavor – so it’s totally safe

Hello, I was wondering where did you get your treat containers from? And what kind of containers are they? I have been searching for them but no luck.
Ashlee Marie
all the glass plates and jars? I kinda collect them from all over. The one I put the pretzels in was honestly just a vase from flowers I was given once.
