Ingredients
- 48 pretzel sticks (6 per web, more if making larger batch)
- 1 cup white chocolate or milk/dark chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate bars), melted
- Candy spiders, chocolate spider shapes, or plastic spider toppers (for decoration)
- Optional: candy eyes, sprinkles, colored sugar, or colored candy melts for extra detail
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
- Arrange 6 pretzel sticks in a star or asterisk shape to form the web base.
- Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Transfer melted chocolate to a piping bag or use a spoon to drizzle it in a spiral pattern over the center of the pretzels, connecting them like a spider web.
- While chocolate is still soft, place a candy spider in the center or decorate with candy eyes and sprinkles.
- Let the webs cool at room temperature or refrigerate for 10–15 minutes until fully set.
- Carefully lift the spider webs from the paper and serve or package.
Notes
- Use orange, purple, or green candy melts for colorful Halloween variations.
- Create “web pops” by making mini webs on lollipop sticks.
- For homemade spiders, pipe melted chocolate into small spider shapes and let harden before placing.
- Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 week.
- Avoid high humidity to keep the pretzels crisp.
