Pretzels and candy canes are VERY compatible when combined with chocolate !!! : ) I found this recipe on BettyCrocker.com, and combined it with another recipe I found for bark with pretzels. I think this one will work for you (by the way, I know there are chocolate "purists" out there, but the candy melt is MUCH easier to use for this than white chocolate, oil, etc.)
1 package (16 ounces) vanilla-flavored candy coating (almond bark), broken into pieces
24 hard peppermint candies
10 oz. bag pretzels, broken into coarse pieces
1. Cover cookie sheet with waxed paper, aluminum foil or cooking parchment paper. Place candy coating in 8-cup microwavable measure or 2-quart microwavable casserole. Microwave uncovered on High 2 to 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until almost melted. Stir until smooth.
2. Place peppermint candies in heavy plastic bag; crush with rolling pin or bottom of small heavy saucepan. Pour crushed candies into wire strainer. Shake strainer over melted coating until all of the tiniest candy pieces fall into the coating; reserve the larger candy pieces. Add pretzels and stir coating to mix evenly. Spread coating evenly on cookie sheet. Sprinkle evenly with remaining candy pieces. Let stand about 1 hour or until cool and hardened. Break into pieces.
Chocolate-Peppermint Bark: Substitute chocolate-flavored candy coating for the vanilla candy coating.
Good luck!

One is listed on marthastewart.com and the other is on Williams Sonoma .... they both have white chocolate, dark chocolate and peppermint candy ..... you really want to have one with pretzels? ..pretzels and candy canes are hardly compatible ... if the indication for Williams Sonoma seems too sketchy, it isn't .... just type it in! Cheers!
