These chocolate skeleton bones are really easy to make! They are made from pretzel sticks, marshmallows and white chocolate. They’re perfect snacks for a Halloween party!

What you’ll need:

• 1 pack of mini white marshmallows
• 1 bag of pretzel sticks (I like vanilla flavoured ones)
• 1 bar of white chocolate (200g)

How to make them

1. Line a large baking sheet with wax paper or baking paper.
2. Tear the pretzel sticks in half, then carefully push them through 2 marshmallows – one on each end. They should just go through them, otherwise they will fall off into the chocolate!
3. Tear the chocolate into small bits, put these into a thick glass bowl.
4. Put this bowl on top of a pan of water –  it should just fit on the top but the bottom of it must not touch the water!
5. Put the pan on the cooker. Turn the heat on to medium heat and let the chocolate melt gently over the simmering water. Stir it a bit, but not too much!
6. When the chocolate has melted,  take it off the heat and let it cool a bit. Then dip the bones into it, covering them well –  use your fingers or a fork for this! Let the chocolate drop back into the bowl!
7. Place the chocolate-covered bones on the baking paper. When you’ve finished, use the leftover chocolate to cover up bits where you touched the sticks or just make the chocolate layer a bit thicker.
8. Leave to set for 4-6 hours – it’s a bit quicker if you put the bones in the fridge!
