Chile Chocolate Pretzels image

Yummy snack with the sweetness of chocolate, the crunch and salt of the pretzels and the zing of the cayenne. I also use the peanut butter filled pretzels for the creaminess of the peanut butter. Awesome snack, they never last long. The cook time is one hour chill time. Adjust the Cayenne for more kick. Be careful not to burn the chocolate, stir well each time while cooking.
