Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces pretzel rods
- 24 pieces mini marshmallows
- 2 cups white chocolate chips (or white candy melts)
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil (optional, for thinning chocolate)
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Instructions
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare your working surface.
2. Push a mini marshmallow onto each end of a pretzel rod. Repeat with all pretzel rods to create a 'bone' shape.
3. Melt the white chocolate chips or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. If needed, add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil to thin the chocolate for easier coating.
4. Holding the center of a pretzel rod, dip the entire 'bone' into the melted white chocolate, ensuring that both the pretzel and marshmallow ends are completely coated. Use a spoon to help cover hard-to-reach spots if necessary.
5. Gently shake off excess white chocolate and place the coated pretzel rod onto the prepared parchment paper. Repeat with all the prepared pretzels.
6. Allow the coated pretzel rods to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to speed up the process.
7. Once the chocolate is fully set, serve your Halloween Bones as a fun and spooky snack or dessert!
