How to Make Chocolate Spider Web Pretzels

Quick Overview
– Prep Time: 10 minutes 
– Chill Time: 15 minutes 
– Total Time: 25 minutes 
– Difficulty: Easy 
– Servings: 12-15 pretzels
Key Ingredients
– 1 bag (12 oz) pretzel twists or squares 
– 1 cup dark or milk chocolate chips 
– ½ cup white chocolate chips 
– 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting) 
– Halloween sprinkles or edible candy spiders (optional)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Melt the Chocolate – In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Add a little coconut oil if needed for a smoother consistency. 
2. Dip the Pretzels – Using a fork or dipping tool, fully coat each pretzel in melted chocolate. Tap off excess and place on parchment paper. 
3. Melt the White Chocolate – Repeat the melting process with white chocolate. 
4. Create the Web – Drizzle white chocolate in thin lines over the dark chocolate pretzels. Use a toothpick to drag lines outward, creating a web effect. 
5. Add Decorations – While the chocolate is still wet, add sprinkles or candy spiders for extra Halloween flair. 
6. Let Them Set – Allow pretzels to harden at room temperature or speed up the process by placing them in the fridge for 15 minutes.
What to Serve With Chocolate Spider Web Pretzels
These spooky snacks are perfect on their own, but why not pair them with other Halloween treats for a full-themed spread? Serve them alongside Witch’s Brew Punch, Monster Rice Krispie Treats, or Candy Corn Bark for a festive dessert table.
For a fun Halloween party idea, set up a DIY pretzel-dipping station where guests can decorate their own spooky treats!
Top Tips for Perfecting This Recipe
– Use High-Quality Chocolate – Better chocolate means smoother melting and richer flavor. 
– Work Quickly – Chocolate hardens fast, so drizzle the white chocolate immediately after dipping. 
– Add a Pinch of Salt – Sprinkle a tiny bit of sea salt on top before the chocolate sets for a sweet-and-salty contrast. 
– Get Creative – Try different pretzel shapes (rods, squares) for unique web designs.
Storing and Reheating Tips
– Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. 
– Freezing: Not recommended, as chocolate may lose its crispness. 
– Reheating: Not needed—just enjoy them straight from the container!
