line the cake pan with wax paper

crush the 4 cups of pretzels by using a blender or place them in a zip tight bag and roll a heavy roller over them

pour the crushed pretzels into a large bowl

mix in sugar and melted butter

press the pretzel mixture onto the wax-lined baking sheet

bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes

let cool - the crust will still be loose

melt the chocolate

pour over the pretzel crust, and spread out across the pretzel crust

*it's ok if some of the pretzels end up in your white chocolate. It will be topped with candy - soon enough

decorate candy pumpkins with faces made from the black cookie frosting

now, add pretzel twists, decorated pumpkin candy, M&Ms, candy corn, and place some eyes into the pretzel twists to make fun faces

place into the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to harden

use a pizza cutter to cut the bark into large pieces and bite-sized pieces
