Chocolate Pretzel Candies

A sweet-and-salty combination of chocolate and pretzels that is really tasty and really easy to make! You can use just about any type of chocolate you want, and pick from a variety of possible toppings - make them how you like them. Tip: use Hershey Hugs (white and brown striped) with green and red M&Ms on top for a festive holiday treat.

Ingredients:

- miniature pretzel twists
- Hershey kisses (any variety, unwrapped), Rolos, or other similar chocolate
- M&Ms, pecans, or something else to go on top.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.

Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Lay the pretzels out flat on the foil.

Put a Hershey kiss or other chocolate on top of each pretzel.

Bake for 2-3 minutes or until the chocolate has softened. White chocolate and filled Hershey kisses will soften faster than solid chocolate.

Remove from oven and immediately press an M&M or pecan into the center of each pretzel, pushing the chocolate down to fill the pretzel.

Immediately place in the refrigerator to let the chocolate set. Refrigerate for 10-20 minutes or until the pretzels can easily be removed from the foil. Store in an airtight container.
