  1. Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals at 50% power until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a ziplock bag.
  2. Dip mini pretzel twists in melted chocolate, tap off excess, and place on wax paper-lined tray. Chill for 3 minutes.
  3. For rabbit pretzels, pipe features with chocolate from the ziplock, add candy eyes and pink heart sprinkles, then chill for 2 minutes.
  4. Dip remaining pretzels in melted white chocolate, sprinkle with white nonpareils for sheep wool, and chill again for 3 minutes.
  5. Dip some pretzels in dark chocolate, sprinkle with festive sprinkles while still wet, and drizzle more chocolate if desired. Chill for another 5 minutes.
  6. Store fully set pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
