Valentine's Day recipes

Hey guys. So today I'm coming to you with A recipe for Valentine's Day. This is something to make for yourself or if you have kids or anybody really. It is a chocolate covered pretzels and apples and I made a couple oranges as well. So let's get started and I'll let you know how I made them. 
There's just a picture of me enjoying my pretzels! 
So the ingredients used were 
💟apples 
💟chocolate chips 
💟pretzels 
💟little Valentine's Day sprinkles.
💟a microwave safe bowl 
💟a knife to cut your apples 
💟a measuring cup  
So I started by coring the apples and turning them into little slices just like this
After that I took my measuring cup and I got about 1 cup of chocolate chips and put it into my microwavable bowl.
So I wasn't quite sure how to use my microwave to melt the chocolate but ended up figuring it out. I put it on for about I want to say 2 to 3 minutes and that ended up melting pretty well. I think it all depends on your microwave mine had a Melt  section and in that section it had chocolate so that's what I used as a guide. 

What your going to do after your chocolate is melted is take your apples and dip in the chocolate I did both sides and then put it on a piece of parchment paper and put your sprinkles on the apple . 
So you're pretty much going to do the same thing for the pretzels. I didn't take a picture of me doing the pretzels cause it's pretty simple and the same as the apples. Theese are the pretzels that I did use. we have some gluten-free people in my house so I decided to use gluten-free pretzels. 
So when you're done dipping all your items that you wanted to dip in chocolate you pretty much just put them on the parchment paper and stick it in the freezer. I did mine overnight but you can do less I would say do at least up to four hours.and this is what they look like after.
So this is another thing that I found on Pinterest it's just kind of a heart-shaped PB and J sandwich that you can make your kids and it's really simple.you need a heart shaped cookie cutter and what you're going to do is just put it in the bread so that one slice has a heart shaped on it.then you're going to take the PB and jelly and put it on your slice that doesn't have a shape on it. Then put the heart shaped piece on top of that and you're all set.This may be a little bit confusing but I don't know how else to explain it but here's a picture of the whole process that I did.
So I hope you guys enjoyed this post and let me know if you want to see any other recipes.
