Holiday Pretzels

These go together super fast and are great to take to a cookie exchange or Christmas party. They do require time to cool.

SERVES 12 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) bag small pretzels (I prefer the square shape)

  • 2 (14 ounce) bags Hershey's Hugs chocolates

  • 1 (13 ounce) bag M&M's plain chocolate candies (Christmas colors)

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, place pretzels on a baking sheet. Unwrap hugs and place one on top of each pretzel. Place in oven for about 3-5 minutes--Watch carefully!--the shape of the hugs candy should remain but it should be soft when you press on it.
  2. 2
    Remove from oven and immediately press one M and M candy on top of the hug, pushing down to spread out the chocolate. It leaves a lovely swirl pattern and the red and green candies on top are very festive. That's it! Just chill and store in a tin. These are so very addicting. Enjoy!

    These were too easy and cute! Kids would have a fun time pressing the m&m on top...a great "candy" for them to make for the holidays. I would recommend eating these within a few days as the chocolate Hugs on mine started to turn a white chalky color after a week in a tin.
