Finger Food

Easy Halloween Desserts – Creative Ideas for Halloween

This chocolate pretzel recipe doubles as a great Halloween dessert and as DIY Halloween props. It definitely gives a new meaning to “finger food”. These chocolate dipped pretzels are SUPER easy and quick to make.

The materials you will need are:

One bag of pretzel rods
Melting candy or chocolate
One bag of sliced almonds
Waxed paper
Cookie Sheet
Glass Measuring cup
Vegetable oil (optional)

Step One: Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.

Step Two: Follow the candy/melting instructions on the bag. I like to melt the candy in a glass measuring cup in the microwave at defrost setting in thirty second increments. Use a spooky color like green or blue to make it look like monster fingers.

Step Three: When candy/chocolate is melted, consider adding vegetable oil to thin out the candy. Add a little at a time until you reach the desired thickness. The vegetable oil will not alter the taste.

Step Four: Break the pretzel rods in half and dip the broken side into your mixture. Carefully lay them in a neat row onto the lined cookie sheet.
