Ingredients
- 1 ounce bag pretzel sticks
- 1 ounce bag white chocolate chips
- 2 tsp coconut oil optional
- black decorator icing
- M&M candies (Halloween colors)
Instructions
- Start by lining your cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Lay out as many pretzel sticks as you would like in your web. I did 16 in each of my webs, but you could make them smaller if you want – just make sure there are at least 8 in each web. Form a circle with them, making sure the end of each pretzel is touching in the center. Repeat this for as many webs as you would like to make.
- Place 1 cup white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and add about two teaspoons of coconut oil if you want the chocolate to have a nice glossy look to it. Place the bowl in the microwave and microwave for 20-30 seconds then stir. Continue this process until the chocolate is fully melted and super smooth.
- Fill a pastry bag with the melted chocolate and drizzle the chocolate in a circular motion on top of the pretzel sticks to form the web, adding extra in the center to keep the pretzel sticks together.
- Place M&Ms on the web where you want your spiders and use the black gel or the melted chocolate chips to draw on the legs.
- Put the pretzel spider webs in the refrigerator for at least two hours (or the freezer for an hour) to allow the white chocolate to harden completely before serving.

Notes
- Add coconut oil to the chocolate to give it a glossy look on the spider webs when melting your chocolate.
- Add 2-4 spiders to each depending on the size of your webs. Try to space them apart so they each get their own portion of the web.
- Store in the refrigerator or at room temperature in an airtight container, as long as your room is fairly cool for up to five days before throwing away. If you keep your house, definitely keep them in the refrigerator so the chocolate doesn’t melt.
- Melted chocolate chips can be used in place of the black decorator icing if you don't have any. Just melt them and pipe on the legs.
