Haunted Hooting Owl Pretzels

Whoo-oo dare eat this menacing owl? Everyone! Though they look especially spooky, these chocolate-dipped pretzels are a hoot to make.

To make, follow these steps:

1. Dip large pretzels in melted confectioner's coating. Place the pretzels on wax paper.
2. As the coating sets, sprinkle with coarse black decorating sugar. Press a black jelly bean to the twist of each pretzel for the nose and small pieces of licorice candy onto the base of the pretzels for the talons.
3. Separate a sandwich cookie and press the halves onto the pretzel for eyes.
4. Ice white candy pieces and press onto each cookie eye, then add chocolate chips to them for pupils.
5. Use black licorice twists as eyebrows.
