Halloween pretzels are fun and spooky chocolate covered pretzels, topped with sprinkles, candy corn, candy eyes and more to make them a perfect treat for Halloween time!
Chocolate covered pretzels are one of my favorite treats. Actually anything covered in chocolate really. These chocolate covered Halloween pretzels are my new favorite Halloween treat, because they’re delicious, easy to make and adults and kids love them.
These Halloween pretzels are so fun because you can decorate them however you want. You can decorate them with candy eyes, candy corn, orange, or green melts, or sprinkles. Turn one into a mummy with white chocolate drizzle and candy eyes, or make one into “Frankenstein”.
You only need a few ingredients to make these, and then you can go crazy decorating the pretzels to your hearts content.
These pretzels are the perfect combination of salty and sweet and so fun for a party, or just a cute snack for you to enjoy with your kids.
