Chocolate Pretzel Cookies image

These pretzel-shaped buttery chocolate cookies are covered in a rich mocha glaze and drizzled with white chocolate. My family goes wild over their chocolaty crunch. They're beautiful to serve and to give as gifts. -Priscilla Anderson, Salt Lake City, Utah

I'm not a big fan of chocolate and pretzels together, but these cookies were surprisingly good. I'd definitely make them again.

I had some trouble finding pretzel rods, but I was able to use regular pretzels instead. They still turned out great!

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Overall, they're still a good recipe.
