Halloween Pretzel Rods

Halloween Pretzel Rods are an easy 3 ingredient no-bake treat perfect for the holiday!
I think very few people bought my spiel about the Halloween Monster Cake Pops being easy. Am I right? But they really are. Sincerely. Truly. Aaaah, forget it. I feel ya.
Let’s do something totally uncomplicated. I promise. You need a microwave, microwave safe bowl, mug, cookie sheet, and three ingredients to turn out this simple Halloween treat.
I made these Halloween Pretzel Rods over a month ago and it was torture not to share them with you all until now. Sweet, salty, festive, and yummy!
Note: I prefer Ghirardelli White Melting Wafers for making this chocolate bark. White chocolate chips work, but they are manufactured with additives to hold their shape, so they don’t melt as easily and also once hardened, the bark tends to soften up at room temperature.
Give some to your friends, family, co-workers, and kid’s classmates and let the happy crunching begin.
Other Halloween Treats we love!
Halloween Pretzel Rods
Ingredients
- 12 ounces package thick pretzel rods
- 10 ounces Ghirardelli White Melting Wafers
- 2.5 ounces container chocolate sprinkles
- 2.5 ounces container orange sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the chocolate and orange sprinkles.
- Place white chocolate wafers in a medium microwavable bowl and melt in the microwave in 30 second intervals on low, stirring in between. Repeat until melted and smooth. Transfer to a tall mug.
- Place a pretzel rod inside the mug and twirl around, coating about 2/3 of the rod, and wriggle to shake off any excess chocolate. Sprinkle the chocolate and orange sprinkles (as much or as little as you like) over each rod. Lay each pretzel on the cookie sheet.
- Place cookie sheet in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to set and dry completely.

I absolutely need a new roaster!
while i will likely never use a roaster as a “roaster” being a vegetarian i would sure like to have a pan like this for other purposes.
Just what I was looking for! I’m going to put little eyeballs on them and serve them at the ladies’ meeting at church.
Oh I love chocolate pretzels and was actually thinking about making them the other day. I bet they would be fun using those mini pretzel sticks too.
Thanks for the giveaway :)
I love Halloween and all the sweet yummy candy that goes along with it.

Thanks for a great giveaway,
We love pretzel rods. We usually include them in every holiday candy making.

As a household of two, we only need a large roasting pan once or twice a year, so I go with the old disposable. But I would so love a big girl roasting pan. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed. Meanwhile, I think I need to make some chocolate covered pretzels.
Those Pretzel Rods look like the perfect combo of salty and sweet!
Liked you on facebook!
Timely giveaway! Who couldn’t use a roaster during the Holidays??? My daughter asked for one for Christmas. I’d love to share this one with her.

My husband just threw out our pan that we had had for over 14 yrs that I had bought at a discount place and well I would love to get a new one but pans are expensive. Calphalon what a great name.
Another cute idea for something
crunchy, sweet and salty. Oops, my mouth is watering…
The pan would be a great addition to my kitchen, I am in the process of replacing my pans not that I am a married woman! The pretzel sticks are cute!

I have been asking for one of these Calphalon roasters for the last few Christmas’s ! Unfortunately, something always comes up. I would LOVE to have this!
I love Calphalon. All of our pots and pans are from them for our new little home. We got married recently and our 6 month anniversary is coming up on the 14th! This would make a great little gift for our household! :-)
I do Thanksgiving dinner and have for many years for 20 or so. I’d really love to have this roaster
I’m going to make these for sure. We’re having some people over for Halloween night, or at the very least, I’ll need a salty/sweet snack as I stand there handing out candy!
Yes, Calphalon rules. But so does Amy!
This pan would be the perfect item for our thanksgiving turkey!
AND…I am adding a coment on Facebook about this fun recipe and this very cool give away!
Thanks again, Amy! I am going to make these AND the cake pops for a party we are going to on Saturday night. Yay for you and your fantastic ideas!!!
I’ve been your facebook buddy and love it !!
I have done Thanksgiving dinners for our whole family for 33 years and seriously I have never had a good roasting pan!!! Boy this would be soooooooooooo nice !
Oh yum! Milo wants to make the house spooky, but these may well take priority. (Love Calphalon, by the way; I’ve had one of their not-nonstick saute pans forever and I use it for everything except eggs and pasta.)
Oooh, I love Calphalon! What a great giveaway!
halloween recipe, yay! love this season.
Love sweet & salty!… and adaptable to most holidays…….and I’d love to have a chance @ the Roaster…. Thanks!
love salty and sweet!…and adaptable to just about any holiday….the Roaster is a nice touch and I’d love to have it!!
Yummy those pretzels always are such a good mix of sweet and salty.
I love these pretzels so much. They never get old, no matter what holiday it is.
The roaster looks like it would be a really useful kitchen tool.
These will be perfect for my Halloween party! Cute! Also- Thank you for the giveaway!
Those are just so pretty! I’d never thought of doing them for halloween, but they’d be good to hand out!
This is a really nice prize!! Thanks for having it!
What a fun and easy recipe that the kids can make with me!
So happy to see the simple (and delicious) pretzel rods make a comeback!
I love Calphalon products!!
Everybody outta the way. I WANT THE ROASTER. ;D
The pretzels look really cute Amy. I may check with Joseph’s teacher and see if I make them if she’d let me bring them into school. *fingers crossed* I’d be able to make them fairly easily! Our weather hasn’t been too kind on my knees… :(
I haven’t won anything in a LONG time, so this would be a really cool addition to my kitchen…..
The roaster sounds great! Thanks for the giveaway!
