Description

Halloween pretzel bones are spooky, sweet-and-salty treats made with pretzel sticks, mini marshmallows, and white chocolate. These no-bake snacks are perfect for Halloween parties, trick-or-treat bags, or festive dessert tables.


Ingredients

  • 2024 pretzel sticks
  • 4048 mini marshmallows
  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips or white candy melts
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or shortening (optional)
  • Wax paper or parchment paper (for setting)

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper.
  2. Push a mini marshmallow onto each end of a pretzel stick to form a bone shape.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips or candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Stir in coconut oil if using, for a thinner consistency.
  4. Dip each marshmallow-tipped pretzel into the melted white chocolate, using a spoon to fully coat if needed.
  5. Gently shake off excess chocolate and place the coated bones on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Let set at room temperature or refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until firm.
  7. Serve on a Halloween platter or package in treat bags for party favors.
