Halloween Spider Web Treat
Ingredients
- 3/4 to 1 cup of chocolate chips
- 10-12 pretzel sticks per spider web
- Plastic spiders optional, for decoration
Instructions
Melt the Chocolate:
- Fill a small saucepan halfway with water and place a metal bowl on top. Add chocolate chips to the bowl and melt over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until fully melted. Remove from heat to cool slightly while you prepare the pretzels.
Prepare the Pretzels:
- On a sheet of wax paper, arrange 10-12 pretzel sticks in a circular pattern for each spider web.
Fill the Bag:
- Pour the melted chocolate into a plastic zip-top bag. Use a container to hold the bag open, making it easier to transfer the chocolate.
Create the Web:
- Snip a small corner off the plastic bag. Squeeze the chocolate in a circular motion over the pretzels to create the web shape.
Cool and Set:
- Let the webs cool at room temperature for a few hours. Alternatively, place them on a cookie sheet and pop them into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes until the chocolate sets and becomes matte.
Serve:
- Carefully peel the spider webs off the wax paper. Place on top of a bowl of ice cream or break them into pieces for an extra spooky touch. Optional: Add plastic spiders for decoration.
Notes
- If you’re in a hurry, chilling the webs in the refrigerator will speed up the setting process.
- Feel free to get creative with the presentation – break the web into smaller pieces, or keep it intact for a dramatic look on top of desserts.
