Halloween provides so much inspiration for fun food and this super easy monster pretzels recipe is perfect for Halloween season!
Whether you make them for Halloween party food or just a fun treat at home, kids are sure to love making and eating these cute little bite-sized monster treats!
These monster pretzels are super simple and quick to make too - they literally take a few minutes from start to finish.
Why not let the kids have a go at making them themselves, putting them together is great for practicing those fine motor skills!
I used a rainbow selection of candy melt colours as I had them leftover from various fun food projects but you can use any mixture of colours or just one colour if you prefer - I'd recommend green for a classic monster look!
If you can't find candy melts (I buy mine from Amazon), brown or white giant chocolate buttons would work just as well instead.
Be sure to check out my recipe video so you can see just how easy these are to make!
Easy Monster Pretzels
Ingredients:
- salted or plain pretzels
- candy melts (any colour or colours of your choice)
- edible candy eyes
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (Gas mark 4/350°F).
Line a small baking tray with baking paper.
Lay out the pretzels in a single layer on the tray.
Top each individual pretzel with one candy melt.
Place the tray of candy melt topped pretzels into the preheated oven for 1-2 minutes until the candy melts have melted.
Working quickly, push a candy eye into the top of each pretzel.
Once the tray is cool enough to handle, pop the pretzels into the fridge to chill for 10-15 minutes until completely set.
Serve in a bowl or plate or bag up in cellophane bags to give out for cute Halloween party favours.
