Preparation

Step 1

Dip large pretzels in melted candy melts. Place the pretzels on waxed paper.

As the coating sets, sprinkle with coarse black decorating sugar. Press a black jelly bean onto the twist of each pretzel for the nose, and small pieces of licorice candy onto the base of the pretzels for the talons.

Separate the Oreo cookies and press the halves onto the pretzel for eyes. Ice white candy pieces and press onto each cookie eye, then add chocolate chips to them for pupils. Use black licorice twists as eyebrows.
