Halloween is just around the corner! How fun? Even though I’m not a kid anymore and I don’t have children yet, I’m obsessed with Halloween crafts and recipes! Today I’m sharing a fun and very easy way to make Halloween pretzel treats. I used them to decorate and add Halloween mood to one of my Halloween Snack – Snack Pack pudding cups. They turned out super cute! Kids are going to like them!
On my recent shopping trip to my local Meijer, I picked up a pack of both chocolate and vanilla Snack Pack Puddings. They are located in the desserts/baking needs aisle. I also got some apples, Peter Pan Peanut Butter and pretzels from Meijer.
Snack Pack comes in a variety of flavors and offers a lot of mix-in opportunities that kids can help you prepare.
Each serving of Snack Pack contains as much calcium as an 8-oz glass of milk.
To the chocolate puddings, I mixed in some peanut butter and pretzels. To the vanilla puddings, I added fresh chopped apple (great way to make kids have some fresh fruit).
Each pudding cup was decorated with a Halloween sticker on the outside.
Then I added a pretzel mummy on top of each Halloween Snack.

Making the Halloween pretzels is simple. I used pretzels (of course), candy melts in white, chocolate, orange and green and Halloween candy eyeballs.
I lined a large tray with parchment paper. Then I melted the candy melts, according to the directions on the packages and then dipped the pretzels in the chocolate to coat them. I let them set for 15 minutes, then I drizzled different colors of melted chocolate over them with a fork. I added some eyeballs to the pretzels (use a dab of melted chocolate to make them stick).
I made a lot of pretzels and then gave them away to my friends and neighbors. These pretzels can be used in a Halloween trail mix.
