Ding Dong Spiders
**Ingredients:**
– 1 box of chocolate Ding Dongs
– 1 cup of milk chocolate melting wafers
– 48 chocolate-covered pretzel sticks
– Candy eyes
– Candy corn
**Instructions:**
1. Start by taking your chocolate Ding Dongs out of the packaging and setting them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This will make it easier to decorate them later.
2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the milk chocolate melting wafers according to the package instructions. Stir the melted chocolate until smooth and creamy.
3. One at a time, dip a chocolate-covered pretzel stick into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it completely. Gently press the chocolate-coated pretzel stick into the top of a Ding Dong to create the spider’s legs. Repeat this process for all four pretzel sticks to create eight legs for each spider.
4. Before the chocolate sets, add two candy eyes to the front of each Ding Dong to create the spider’s eyes. You can get creative with the placement of the eyes to give each spider a unique expression.
5. Cut the candy corn into small pieces to create fangs for your spiders. Gently press two pieces of candy corn into the front of each Ding Dong under the eyes to create the spider’s fangs.
6. Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving your Ding Dong Spiders. You can place them in the refrigerator for a few minutes to speed up the process if needed.
7. Serve your Ding Dong Spiders on a platter and watch as your guests marvel at these adorable and delicious treats. They are perfect for Halloween parties, school events, or simply as a fun and festive snack.
Get creative with your Ding Dong Spiders by experimenting with different types of candy eyes or adding colorful sprinkles for a fun twist. These treats are easy to make and are guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser at any event. Enjoy creating these charming and tasty Ding Dong Spiders for a spooky and delightful treat that will bring smiles to all who indulge in them. Happy baking!
