Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 50 mini pretzels (such as Snyder’s Snaps)
- 50 Rolo candies, unwrapped
- 50 M&M candies (plain or peanut, depending on preference)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect low temperature for softening the Rolos without melting them completely.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the mini pretzels in a single layer to avoid sticking and to ensure even heating.
- Add Rolos: Place one unwrapped Rolo candy on top of each pretzel, positioning them carefully to maintain the shape and prevent them from sliding off.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 3–4 minutes, just until the Rolos become soft and pliable but not fully melted for the ideal texture.
- Press M&Ms: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately press one M&M candy into the center of each softened Rolo, sandwiching the candy onto the pretzel.
- Cool and Set: Allow the pretzels to cool at room temperature or refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to let the chocolates firm up and hold their shape.
- Store: Once fully set, transfer the Rolo pretzels with M&Ms into an airtight container to keep them fresh until serving.
Notes
- Use seasonal M&M colors to customize treats for holidays or special events.
- Try pretzel twists or waffle-style pretzels for different textures and added crunch.
- These treats make excellent edible gifts or party snacks and can be prepared ahead of time and frozen for later use.
