Easy Pretzel Kiss Candies
Ingredients
- Round pretzels*
- Candy Cane Hershey's Kisses, unwrapped
- Red and green M&Ms
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Line pretzels up on baking sheet and place an unwrapped Kiss in the center of each pretzel. Bake for approximately 4 minutes until Kiss begins to soften. {NOTE: The Kisses may retain their shape and not appear to be melting. Touch the tip of a Kiss and gently press down to check. If the Kiss still feels hard to the touch, continue baking until soft.}
- Remove pan from the oven and, working quickly, immediately place an M&M on top of each Kiss. Let candies cool completely on the pan before removing.
*If you can't find round pretzels, square pretzel snaps or regular small twists work, as well.
Enjoy!
