Semi-Sweet vs. Almond Bark.

So, I attempted on making caramel & chocolate covered pretzels this year to deliver to some family and friends. Note-to-self: Semi-Sweet Chocolate doesn't set up hard:) After dunking a few of them I just knew that they weren't turning out to be the way I thought they should....so I did some googling (good thing for the internet) and came to the conclusion that I should have used either paraffin wax w/melted chocolate or almond bark. My husband, being the sweety that he is, ended up going to the store for me. He came back with the almond bark. And everything came to a happy ending...they turned out just perfect! I succeeded!! They taste pretty dang good too, if I may say so myself:)

Obviously, I'm an amateur when it comes to baking. But, you can only learn from your mistakes, right!
