Description

Halloween Pretzels are a festive and fun treat featuring yogurt-covered pretzels decorated with vibrant colored candy melts and sprinkles, perfect for spooky celebrations and sharing with family and friends.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 package yogurt-covered pretzels
  • Colored candy melts (orange, red, green, yellow)
  • 1/2 cup sprinkles, jimmies, nonpareils, dots, etc.


Instructions

  1. Prepare Pretzels: Lay out the yogurt-covered pretzels on a piece of wax paper to create your workspace for decorating.
  2. Melt Candy: Heat the colored candy melts according to the package directions until smooth and fully melted. Transfer the melted candy to a piping bag for precise application.
  3. Decorate Eyes: Pipe the candy melts into the top left and right holes of each pretzel to create the eyes.
  4. Add Pupils: Immediately add sprinkles or candy pieces onto the piped candy melts to form the pupils before the candy sets, ensuring they stick properly.
  5. Set Pretzels: Allow the decorated pretzels to set completely at room temperature or in a cool area so the candy melts harden.
  6. Store: Once set, pack and store the Halloween pretzels in an airtight container to keep them fresh until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Work with about 6 pretzels at a time to add sprinkles quickly before the candy melts set.
  • You can substitute Mini M&Ms for sprinkles for added color and texture.
  • Use wax paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  • Store pretzels in a cool, dry place to avoid melting and keep their shape intact.
