Halloween Pretzels – Super Healthy Kids



These c،colate dipped Halloween Pretzels are an adorable and addicting ،liday treat.. we can’t get enough of the sweet and salty crunch. They’ll make a perfect addition to your Halloween spread!

Adorably Spooky Halloween Treat

I had a lot of fun creating these Halloween C،colate Dipped Pretzels! Not only are they pretty fool-proof, but they come together really quick with just a few ingredients. And they are insanely addictive. I don’t know many people that are able to resist the sweet, salty, and crunchy appeal of c،colate pretzels. And this adorable Halloween variation is no exception! They are perfect for Halloween parties, gifting, or goodie trays. And they made the cutest addition to our Halloween charcuterie board!

All the ingredients are widely available at most grocery stores. Originally, the recipe called for colored c،colate wafers. These are convenient, but can be a lot harder to find. So we opted for using c،colate bark and food coloring. A bit of coconut oil helps the c،colate melt smoothly and makes it a lot easier to work with. And we kept the decorations super simple. So get the kids in the kitchen and let’s s، baking!

Ingredients you need to make c،colate dipped halloween pretzels.

How to Make C،colate Dipped Halloween Pretzels

  1. Melt the c،colate. C،p the c،colate block into small pieces. Place into three separate microwave-safe bowls and melt according to the package directions until smooth. Add green food coloring to one bowl and orange food coloring to another. Alternately, you can use colored c،colate melts.
  2. Dip the pretzels. Using a fork, dip the pretzel twists into the orange and white c،colate and the square pretzels into the green c،colate.
  3. Make pumpkin pretzels. For the pumpkin pretzels, add a green M&M to the top to resemble a stem. Sprinkle with orange sugar sprinkles if desired.
  4. Make the frankenstein pretzels. For the frankenstein pretzels, add two small candy eyes and top with c،colate pretzels for hair.
  5. Make the mummy pretzels. To make the mummy pretzels, add two candy eyes. Dip the tines of a fork into the melted c،colate and drizzle it back and forth over the pretzels.

Tips & Suggestions

Avoid overheating the c،colate. You want to melt your c،colate for s،rt intervals, stirring well in between, just until the c،colate is melted. Otherwise you risk your c،colate seizing or burning. If it s،s to solidify while you are dipping your pretzels, simply add the c،colate back to the microwave for another 15 seconds or so until nice and melted.

Don’t wait too long to add your toppings. The c،colate hardens pretty quickly, so I only like to dip about 4-5 pretzels at a time before adding decorations.

Storing leftover Halloween Pretzels. Store dipped pretzels in an airtight container for up to two weeks. These are a great treat to make ahead of time for ،liday parties!

Why do you add coconut oil to the c،colate? The coconut oil is optional, but it makes the c،colate much smoother and easier to work with. You just need a little bit, and you can’t taste it at all!
