Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 30 waffle pretzels
  • 30 Rolo candies
  • 30 M&M candies
  • Sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for gentle melting of the chocolates without burning.
  2. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment paper for easy cleanup and arrange the 30 waffle pretzels in a single layer on the sheet.
  3. Add Rolo candies: Place one Rolo candy on top of each pretzel, ensuring each one sits securely in the center.
  4. Melt the chocolates: Bake the pretzels with Rolos in the preheated oven for 4 to 5 minutes, or just until the Rolo chocolates begin to soften and slightly melt.
  5. Add M&M candies: Remove the tray from the oven and promptly place one M&M candy on top of each melted Rolo, pressing lightly to adhere without deforming the candy.
  6. Optional decoration: Sprinkle your desired colorful sprinkles over the candies for extra fun and flair if using.
  7. Cool and set: Allow the treats to cool completely at room temperature so the chocolate hardens and the candies set securely before serving.

Notes

  • Using a Silpat or parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy.
  • If Hershey’s Kisses are preferred, substitute them for the Rolos for a slightly different chocolate flavor.
  • Be careful not to overbake; melting the Rolo candies too long can cause them to lose shape or burn.
  • Letting the candies cool fully ensures the toppings stay in place when handling.
  • These treats are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain crispiness of the pretzels.
