The Pretzel Hugs and Chocolate Strawberries were delicious! They were both very quick and easy to make. There are a few things I would suggest though. First, for the strawberries, if you don’t like dark chocolate I would recommend using milk chocolate baking chips instead of the bittersweet ones. Second, I would refrigerate the pretzel hugs so they set faster. Overall, these would be the perfect Valentine’s Day treats!
