FAQs:

  • We recommend piping bags for this to make clean up easy and more precise designs; however, a ziploc bag will work as well. 
  • Any variety of sprinkles will work here – we just want to add some color and texture.  Some sprinkles even come with spiders already in the mix!  

 

Ingredients:

1 c white chocolate chips

¼ c dark chocolate chips

4 c pretzel sticks

¼ c Halloween sprinkles of choice

 

Directions:

  1. Prep your work area by laying out a few strips of parchment paper.  
  2. Transfer the dark chocolate to a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time.  Stir well between increments until smooth.  Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a ziploc with a small hole cut in the end.  
  3. To make the spiders:  Pipe a small dot about the size of a dime and then four legs on both sides of the dot.  Allow to set by placing the parchment with the spiders on a plate or cutting board and placing in the fridge or freezer to expedite the chocolate hardening.  
  4. Once the spiders are set, you can create the webs.  Lay out approximately 8-10 pretzel sticks in a circle, with the points all meeting in the center.  
  5. Melt the white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time.  Stir well between increments until smooth.  Transfer the melted white chocolate to a piping bag or a ziploc with a small hole cut in the end. 
  6. Pipe a large dollop in the center of the pretzels to keep them all connected.  Then pipe large circles around and around the pretzels until it resembles a web.  Keep the white chocolate dizzle lines somewhat thick – if they are too thin, they are easier to break. 
  7. Immediately top with a spider (carefully remove from the parchment as to not break off any legs) and a few sprinkles for some color.  
  8. Repeat this process with the remaining pretzels until the white chocolate is gone.  
  9. Allow to set at room temperature for about 10-20 minutes or until the white chocolate has hardened.
