Notes
Melt your chocolate chips and your caramel chips in separate bowls.
Have fun making different size reindeer by choosing different size pretzel antler.
Make sure you do not melt the chocolate for longer than 30 seconds at a time. Once the chocolate “bakes” you will have to start all over.
Make sure the bark is completely frozen before removing from the refrigerator.
Box it up and give it to friends for the holidays!
