  • Skewer sticks
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Jumbo marshmallows
  • Yogurt or white chocolate–covered pretzels
  • Milk chocolate (for the face)

How to Make Marshmallow Skeletons:

  • Build the Body:
    Slide a mini marshmallow onto your skewer stick and gently push it down a bit — this starts your skeleton’s spine.
  • Add the “Ribs”:
    Alternate between marshmallows and pretzels — marshmallow, pretzel, marshmallow, pretzel — until you have four pretzels total. These white chocolate pretzels make the perfect “rib bones.”
  • Top It Off with a Head:
    Place a jumbo marshmallow on top for the skeleton’s head.

  • Draw the Face:
    Melt a bit of milk chocolate and use a toothpick or skewer tip to draw spooky faces — eyes, a nose, and a creepy-cute grin.
  • Let It Set:
    Allow the chocolate to firm up, or chill them for a few minutes to set quickly.

How to Serve & Pair Them

Make your Halloween spread extra festive by pairing your skeletons with other themed snacks! Add them to a Halloween dessert charcuterie board filled with chocolate-dipped strawberries, candy eyeballs, gummy worms, and chocolate broomsticks made with pretzel sticks and peanut butter cups.
