Recipe: Pretzel Spider Web

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: None
Yield: 6 servings
Serving size: 2 webs

Ingredients

  • 48 mini pretzel rods

  • 2 ounces melting white chocolate

Instructions

  1. Start by carefully breaking the pretzel rods in half, using 4 for each web.

  2. On a silicone baking mat, or a piece of parchment paper, lay out the webs by placing the pretzel rods in a snowflake shape with the broken ends meeting in the middle.

  3. Melt the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl in 15 second intervals until it is melted.

  4. Allow the chocolate to cool so it is safe enough to touch, and then transfer it to a resealable ziplock bag and cut a very narrow tip at the corner.

  5. Pipe the chocolate in the center of the pretzel web to connect the pieces, then drizzle in a circular motion to make the web. Each web will use about 1½ teaspoons of melted chocolate.

  6. Allow to harden, then gently pop them off of the surface with a flat metal spatula.
