Christmas Pretzel Treats

This is a favorite holiday goody that everyone loves and is so easy to make. The hardest part is unwrapping the Hershey Kiss!

First pre-heat your oven to 170 degrees.

I do put parchment paper on a cookie sheet but it is not an absolute.

Place the round pretzels that are about 2 inches in diameter on the cookie sheet, filling it up. Place an unwrapped Hershey Kiss on each pretzel. You can use any flavor Kiss you want.
Place them in the oven for about 4 to 6 minutes. They should be very soft but not melted.

Next take them out of the oven and press an M&M into each Kiss. Let them cool, place in the fridge for about 10 minutes and then remove from pan. You may want to experiment with the time here. The Kiss should now be completely firm. I store them in zip lock bags They don't last long so you may need to make a lot! Enjoy

It is the perfect combination of chocolate, saltiness and sugar.
