Halloween Apple Treats are a delicious snack made with green apples and dark chocolate shaped into spiders. Kids will love their fruit when itโs this much fun!
All you need is Granny Smith apples (we love them for their perfect balance of sweet and sour), white and dark chocolate, candy eyes, a few red chocolate buttons, and sprinkles for fangs.
Recipe Tip
Get the whole family involved and let the kids help make them!
These chocolate-covered apples make the perfect Halloween party recipe, and theyโre a great alternative to caramel apples. They also make a tasty afternoon snack when the kids come home from school.
Halloween Apple Treats Ingredients
- Chocolate: Youโll need dark and white chocolate. Make sure to melt it low and slow, so it wonโt burn.
- Granny Smith: Use firm, unbruised, and symmetrical apples.
- Candy eyes: Plain or red-veined or a combination of both.
- Chocolate buttons: For the spiderโs black widow spot.
- Sprinkles: For the fangs.
How to Make Halloween Apple Treats
- Halve the apples and remove the core. Insert the lolly sticks.
- Add the spider web details using melted white chocolate and a toothpick. Allow to set.
- Top the spider web with the dark chocolate spider.
- Add the candy eyes, fangs, and a red chocolate button.
Possible Variations
- Chocolate: Use any color chocolate you prefer.
- Green apples: Yellow or red apples are fine, too.
- Candy eyes: Swap for smaller eyes, add more, or omit.
- Lolly sticks: Choose any colored sticks or omit.
- Presentation: Keep it simple and top the apples with only the white chocolate spider web or drizzle white chocolate randomly over the apples to mimic a web, and then add the dark chocolate spider.
