Ingredients
2 cups pretzels (broken into pieces)

1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the ingredients:

Place the baking sheet in the fridge for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set and firm.
Serve or store:
Once set, you can enjoy the clusters immediately or store them in an airtight container.
