Pretzel Candy Melts Spiders

Instructions

Click to mark complete

1. - Use a serrated knife to slowly and carefully saw off the top two curved sections of the Minis Pretzels to create the spider leg pieces (you will need 4 Minis Pretzels for each spider, as each pretzel yields 2 leg pieces and each spider will have 8 total legs).
2. - Place Snaps Pretzels on a piece of wax paper. These will be the spiders' bodies.
3. - Working with only one color spider at a time, melt Light Cocoa, Bright White, Orange, and Black Candy Melts according to package directions. If needed, stir in EZ Thin to make a smooth, spoonable consistency.
4. - Spoon melted candy on top of the Snaps Pretzels, allowing the candy to fill the holes of the pretzel with a smooth layer of candy on top.
5. - Add 8 leg segments to each pretzel body, then add two small Candy Eyeball Sprinkles towards the front center of each spider (decorating tweezers can be helpful for placing the eyeballs).
6. - Repeat with the additional colors of Candy Melts.
7. - Allow Candy Melts to set completely before serving (you can also chill them to expedite the process).
