With only three ingredients, these chocolate spider webs are great for those who love sweet and salty snacks with salted pretzels and sweet chocolate. These chocolate spider webs are a great snack to serve as part of a Halloween party alongside other treats like popcorn balls and caramel apples.

To make the chocolate spider webs, pretzel sticks get arranged into a start shape before white chocolate is piped around it to create the appearance of a spider web. Then, you pipe dark chocolate to create spider shapes before placing them on top of the webs. The resulting spider webs will be absolutely adorable while also being delicious!

What are Chocolate Spider Webs?

Chocolate spider webs are treats that require only three ingredients such as pretzels, dark chocolate, and white chocolate. The combination of pretzels and melted chocolate are combined to create spiderweb shapes that are garnished with chocolate spiders.

Pro Tips

  • You can melt the chocolate in the microwave or in a double boiler over simmering water.
  • If you don’t have a piping bag, feel free to use a plastic Ziploc bag that you have cut a corner out of.
  • If you find that the chocolate comes out of the piping bag too quickly, you could allow the chocolate to cool slightly before piping it as this will help the chocolate thicken slightly.
  • If you don’t have dark chocolate on hand, you could replace it with semi-sweet chocolate or milk chocolate.
