Mint Pretzel Kisses


I have had Pretzel Kisses at parties before and they taste so good.  They are one of those foods that I can't seem to stop eating.  I never realized how easy they are to make.  These are a quick easy treat that are great for Christmas gifts.  In fact I made a whole bunch to give to people for gifts. 

I thought it would be a great idea to make these mint flavored for Christmas.  The mint and chocolate combination are a perfect flavor for Christmas and the pretzels with the Christmas colored M &M's and colored sugar, look so festive. These pretzels, while great for gifts, are also an easy snack for Christmas parties.  These are a really easy Christmas treat to make. 


Mint Pretzel Kisses

Small twisted pretzels
Mint Truffle Hershey Kisses
Green sugar sprinkles
Red sugar sprinkles
Mint Chocolate M&M's

1.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 

2.  Place the pretzels on an ungreased cookie sheet.  Place a Mint Truffle Kiss on top of each pretzel. 

3.  Bake the pretzels for 2-3 minutes or until the chocolate softens. 

4.  Once you remove form the oven sprinkle the green and red sugar sprinkles over the chocolate kiss.  Then gently place a Mint Chocolate M&M on top of the Kiss.  Then cool and serve.  To cool faster refrigerate the pretzel kisses.

  13. I tried these over christmas 2 or 3 times and couldnt seem to get the kisses to melt. They turned to the texture of sweet-tarts and burned! WHAT DID I DO WRONG? It was very sad! They are so yummy looking!

    1. Oh no, I'm sorry. I'm not sure what happened. The chocolate really doesn't need to melt, it just needs to soften enough so that the M&M will stay on top. It really only needs to cook for about 2-3 minutes. Maybe they cooked for too long? I hope that helps.
