Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 50 small pretzels (mini pretzels or pretzel snaps work best)
- 50 Rolo candies, unwrapped
- 50 M&M candies (holiday colors or classic)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare Pretzels: Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap so the Rolos melt evenly.
- Add Rolo Candies: Place one unwrapped Rolo candy in the center of each pretzel, positioning them carefully to avoid sliding during baking.
- Bake: Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for 3 to 5 minutes. Watch closely until the Rolos soften but do not completely melt, creating a gooey caramel center that holds its shape.
- Top with M&M Candies: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately press one M&M candy onto each softened Rolo. Gently push down to spread the caramel without breaking the pretzel.
- Cool and Set: Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to quickly set the chocolate and caramel.
- Serve or Store: Once firm, transfer the Rolo pretzels to a serving dish or store in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crisp.
Notes
- Use mini pretzels or pretzel snaps for best size and texture.
- Watch the Rolos carefully while baking to avoid over-melting.
- You can customize with different colored M&Ms for holidays or themes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate.
- These treats are best enjoyed within a few days for optimal freshness.
