Ingredients
  

For the Pretzels
  • 16 pieces Mini Pretzels Opt for brands like Shultz or Snyder's for best results.

  • 6 oz Guittard Vanilla Milk Chips Alternatively, use white candy melts or almond bark.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with wax or parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the Guittard Vanilla Milk Chips and coconut oil. Heat in 10-20 second bursts until melted and smooth.
  3. Dip each mini pretzel into the melted chocolate mixture using a fork, shaking off excess chocolate.
  4. Place the chocolate-covered pretzel onto the prepared baking sheet and press two Wilton Candy Eyeballs into the top while the chocolate is warm.
  5. Repeat the dipping and decorating process with the remaining mini pretzels, reheating the chocolate if it thickens.
  6. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes or in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes.
  7. Once set, gently peel off the Ghost Pretzels from the baking sheet and arrange them on a serving platter.
