Description

Christmas ROLO Pretzels are the ultimate sweet and salty holiday treat! Made with just three ingredients, these bite-sized snacks are quick to prepare and perfect for cookie trays, gift bags, or a festive snack for family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag mini pretzels (about 60 pieces)
  • 1 bag ROLO candies (about 60 pieces), unwrapped
  • 1 bag holiday-themed M&M’s (red and green)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Assemble the Pretzels:
    • Lay the mini pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
    • Place one ROLO candy on top of each pretzel.
  3. Bake:
    • Bake for 3–4 minutes, or until the ROLO candies are softened but still hold their shape.
  4. Add the M&M’s:
    • Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Quickly press one M&M into the center of each softened ROLO, gently squishing it into the pretzel.
  5. Cool and Set:
    • Allow the pretzels to cool at room temperature until the chocolate is set, or place them in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes to speed up the process.
  6. Serve or Store:
    • Transfer the ROLO pretzels to a serving plate or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes

  • Use festive-shaped pretzels, like stars or Christmas trees, for an extra holiday touch.
  • Swap M&M’s for crushed candy canes or other small candies for variety.
  • These treats freeze well—store in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
