Sprinkle of Spring Vanilla Almond Bark Pretzels

I remember when I was first introduced to almond bark, like we’re using in these Sprinkle of Spring Vanilla Almond Bark Pretzels. It was with my mom’s friend, Nancy, and I was still a young kid around 10 years old. I believe she was trying to entertain me while I spent an afternoon at her house.

Vanilla almond bark pretzels are a failproof way to entertain me, both then and now.

She heated the bark until melted in the microwave and I proceeded to dip in pretzel twist after pretzel. I remember that it was almost impossible to wait until the bark hardened, though it really takes no time at all. Those pretzels needed to be in my belly!

I had almost forgotten about the joy of almond bark until I happened to catch a glance at a package of it in the store. Which turned out to be the best timing, because this week, as Easter approaches and spring break is upon us, my kids were in desperate need of entertainment. With the colors of spring coming to life, these pretzels seem like they belong with the season. Only this time, I also found some of the cutest flower shaped sprinkles to really make them more festive for this time of the year.
