Ingredients
Ingredients
- 30 waffle pretzels
- 30 Rolo candies
- 30 M&M candies
- Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for melting the chocolate Rolos on the pretzels.
- Arrange Pretzels: Line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment paper and neatly arrange the 30 waffle pretzels on it with some spacing.
- Add Rolo Candies: Place one Rolo candy on top of each pretzel square. You may substitute Hershey kisses if preferred.
- Melt Chocolate: Bake in the preheated oven for 4-5 minutes, just until the Rolo candies start to soften and melt but not fully liquify.
- Add M&M Toppings: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately press one M&M candy into the center of each melted Rolo on the pretzels.
- Add Sprinkles (Optional): If desired, sprinkle with festive sprinkles for extra decoration and flavor.
- Cool Completely: Allow the chocolate pretzels to cool completely so the chocolate hardens. You can speed this up by refrigerating them if you are short on time.
Notes
- Use fresh pretzels and Rolos to avoid stale or overly hard candies.
- Do not overbake; melting should take no longer than 5 minutes to prevent a caramel mess.
- This recipe can be adapted by swapping in different holiday candies and sprinkles to suit the occasion.
- Chilling the pretzels after baking helps the chocolate set faster if you want to serve sooner.
