In a food processor, grind up approximately 140g of pretzel sticks until you have fine crumbs.

In a medium bowl, mix together the pretzel crumbs, sugar, and butter. Distribute the mixture into muffin tins and press the mixture down firmly and evenly. Place in the freezer for about 10-20 minutes to firm up.

Let your first pint of gelato soften at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl and stir it with a spoon or spatula until it’s the consistency of soft serve. Spread a thin layer over the crumb crusts and then freeze for 10-20 minutes. Repeat this process with the remaining pints of gelato. Once the last layer is on, freeze for a few hours or overnight.

In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted. Let it sit for a few minutes, stirring often, until it is no longer hot.

To remove the cakes from the tins, run the outside of the tins under warm water and then run a knife around the edges. Lift them out and then place them upside down on a plate or baking sheet. Spoon a bit of chocolate on the top and add a cherry, if desired. Keep in the freezer until ready to serve.
