Halloween Pretzel Rods are an easy, no-bake treat perfect for parties, school events, or festive family fun. Dip pretzel rods in melted chocolate or candy melts, decorate with spooky toppings, and enjoy a sweet and salty snack everyone will love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag pretzel rods
  • 4 cups white chocolate chips or colored candy melts
  • 1 cup assorted Halloween sprinkles
  • Optional: edible candy eyes, food-safe coloring (oil-based), black and orange icing
  • Parchment or wax paper

Instructions

  1. Prepare your workspace with parchment or wax paper.
  2. Melt the chocolate or candy melts using a double boiler or microwave. Stir until smooth.
  3. Dip each pretzel rod into the melted chocolate, covering about two-thirds of the rod.
  4. Gently shake off excess chocolate and immediately decorate with Halloween sprinkles and edible toppers.
  5. Place decorated pretzels on parchment paper and let them set at room temperature for 15–20 minutes, or chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  6. Once fully set, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.

Notes

  • If chocolate seizes, add a small amount of warm heavy cream and stir until smooth.
  • Use oil-based food coloring only—avoid water-based colors.
  • Layer colors by letting each drizzle set before adding another.
  • Avoid refrigerating for long periods to prevent chocolate from cracking or sweating.
  • Fun for kids—use different toppings and let them create monster or mummy designs.
