Spider Donut Chocolate Covered Apple Slices are so fun for kids to make and of course eat! This makes for a great Halloween party recipe for the kids to make or you can even make them for them to enjoy after trick or treating. We recently worked with Wholly Rollies on a sponsored IG post and we wanted to share the recipe here!
We absolutely love chocolate covered apples, our favorite way to make chocolate covered apples is chocolate covered apple donuts which are just apple slices covered in chocolate. You could make apple donuts with frosting and sprinkles which is even easier!
To make our spider donuts we used a piping bag, candy eyes, candy melts, and semi-sweet chocolate. The actual spider bodies is a Wholly Rollies.

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE COVERED APPLE SLICES
- Slice an apple into donut shapes and cut the middle out using an apple corer.
- Dip the apples into a lemon water mixture to prevent browning.
- Melt your desired chocolate in a microwave safe bowl for 30 seconds at a time stirring in between.
- Once the chocolate is melted dry the apples off and dip into the chocolate, kids could also spread it on if dipping is too messy.
- To thin the chocolate use a little coconut oil or any neutral oil you have on hand that won’t alter the taste.
