These Halloween Chocolate Apple Slices are an easy and fun party recipe! With only 4 easy ingredients and 10 minutes, you’ll have a show-stopper monster-themed dessert!

Caramel apples are quite popular during the fall season, but what about chocolate apples? In my opinion, anything with chocolate is just a little better! These Halloween-themed chocolate apple slices are an excellent treat to make during the fall season. The best part is, you can customize them for any holiday or time of year by changing out your decorations.
This year, I went with a monster theme, using candy eyes, and monster sprinkles. I added a popsicle stick through the center so that it would be an easy grab-and-go treat. These would also be spectacularly cute wrapped in cellophane and decorated with Halloween ribbon as a party favor, or host gift.

Ingredients and Notes
Large Apples: I used two large Honeycrisp apples, but you can use any type of apple you prefer. Two large apples will make approximately 8 slices. Use more apples to make a larger batch.
Dark Chocolate Chips: Use high-quality dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Candy Eyes: These can be found in the baking section of your grocery store.
Halloween Sprinkles: Any type of Halloween sprinkles will do. I found a Monster Mix at the store that I thought was super cute. You can change out the sprinkles for more natural ingredients such as coconut flakes, or chopped nuts.
How to Make Halloween Chocolate Apple Slices
Step 1: Slice your large apples into thin slices. To avoid the core, I make two slices on each side of the apples.
Step 2: Melt your chocolate chips in a glass bowl in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring with a spatula between each increment until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Step 3: Add your apple slices one at a time to the bowl of melted chocolate. Using a spoon or spatula coat the apple slice with chocolate. Using your fingers or tongs, place the apple slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 4: Immediately add the candy eyes, and sprinkles before the chocolate has a chance to set.
Step 5: Place a popsicle stick under the chocolate apple so that the melted chocolate covers the stick. Alternatively, you can cut a small hole in the bottom of the apple slice to make room for the popsicle stick to glide it into place.
Step 6: Transfer them to the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set. Serve and enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions
They are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
I recommend making them no more than 1-2 days in advance. Since they are made with apples, which are perishable, and these apples are sliced, you want them to taste as fresh as possible.
I recommend adding a popsicle stick or a lollipop stick to the bottom of the apple slice so that they can be enjoyed on the go.
