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.

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.

Looks like a good piece, and since I don’t currently have a roaster, I would not be opposed to winning it!

And the roaster would be cool too :)
Hosting Thanksgiving for the first time this year (#soincrediblynervous), and could totally do with a new roaster!
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.

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!
It’s like Pocky for Halloween! Great idea!

Hi Jan – I get the pretzel rods at my local market or Target, in the chip aisle where the rest of the pretzels are. They’re pretty common.
I ‘like’ you on FB.
This will be an easy but fun treat for my kids (4 & 5) and I to make!
