Instructions

  1. Paint the top of each almond with black gel food coloring and set aside on waxed paper to dry.

  2. Break or cut each pretzel rod in half.

  3. Melt green candy coating in a small, deep microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.

  4. Dip each pretzel half into the green coating, leaving a 1/2-inch section at the top undipped.

  5. Place dipped pretzels on lined paper; immediately press a black almond onto the coated tip of each.

  6. Once the green coating is partially set, use a toothpick to create two sets of knuckle wrinkles on each pretzel: one near the almond and one halfway down.

  7. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to fully set the coating.
