Monster Pretzels
Monster pretzels are a spooky sweet and salty snack that kids will love helping to make and eat! These ghoulish treats are perfect for Halloween.
Ingredients
- 40 square mini pretzels
- 20 yellow candy melts or whatever candy melt color matches your décor
- 20 blue candy melts
- 40 small candy eyes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place pretzels in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with a silicone baking mat.
- Place a candy melt in the middle of each pretzel.
- Bake in the oven for 5 minutes or until candy begins to melt (this goes quickly, so keep an eye on it).
- Immediately add a candy eye to each pretzel. Do this while the candy melts are still soft enough to press the candy eyes into it.
- Let the treats cool.
- Serve and enjoy.
Notes
The quantities for this recipe are not specific. If you want to make more or less, you can. Just adjust the number of ingredients accordingly. For the candy melts, any combination of colors works fine!
You can also use a piece of parchment paper on the baking sheet. The mat won’t slide, though, so it is preferable.
Be sure to let the candy melts set fully before you package or store your monster pretzel bites, otherwise, they’ll smudge and stick.
