Trick or Treat? Jell-o Pudding Cups and Caramel Chocolate Pretzel Sticks

*This post was supposed to go up last October but due to my father’s passing I didn’t have the opportunity to post this. I will be making these cups and sticks again. They are delicious!

Hello my friends! I made Jell-o Pudding Cups and Caramel Chocolate Pretzel Sticks and they are a hit at our home. These are perfect for Movie night with the family. Super Easy to make and delicious!

I used orange and lemon jell-o, I also used Vanilla pudding. I made the orange first and let it set in the fridge, followed by the yellow then let it set in the fridge and topped it with vanilla pudding and halloween sprinkles! So delicious and easy to make. My girls love these! These look like candy corn in a cup. Really festive and I hope you try them out. 🎃

I bought pretzel sticks and caramel candies from the Bulk Barn and I also used my favourite chocolate, Lindt of course! I melted the caramel in the microwave and dipped the pretzel sticks in the caramel. I then let them cool in the fridge on parchment paper for a minute or two. I then melted the chocolate and dipped them again in the chocolate. I placed them in the fridge on parchment paper for a minute or two. These are so good! You should totally try making these.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻
