- 12 ounces white candy coating wafers
- 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
- 1 bag (16 ounces) small pretzel twists
- 1/4 cup orange candy melts
- 1/4 cup black candy melts
- Halloween sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the white candy coating wafers and shortening together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip half of each pretzel into the melted white coating. Let excess drip off.
- Place the coated pretzels on the prepared baking sheet.
- Immediately sprinkle the wet coating with Halloween sprinkles.
- Melt the orange and black candy melts separately according to package directions.
- Transfer the melted orange and black coatings to small piping bags or zip-top bags with a corner snipped off.
- Pipe thin lines or small designs onto the white coating of the pretzels for a spooky look.
- Allow the pretzels to set completely at room temperature or chill for 15 minutes until firm.
Notes
- If the candy coating is too thick, add a small amount of vegetable oil or shortening to thin it slightly.
- Store finished pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature.
