Create frighteningly fun Halloween pretzels by dipping rods in white chocolate or green candy melts, then decorating with sprinkles and candy eyes. For a creepy twist, shape witch fingers with knuckle indentations, black almond nails, and a red blood drizzle.
Ingredients
Directions
- Melt white chocolate by heating in microwave for 30-second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted. Should it be too thick for dipping or drizzling, incorporate vegetable oil one teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
- Follow the instructions on the green candy melts package to melt them properly.
- Choose your coating (white chocolate or green candy melt) and dip the pretzel rods, then add decorations as you like. For witch finger pretzels, use a knife to press indentations for knuckles. Paint the sliced almonds with black gel food coloring, then attach one to the pretzel tip with a small amount of melted chocolate or candy melt. Finally, use red gel food coloring to drizzle around the almond nail to create a blood effect.
