Chocolate Pretzel Recipe for Christmas ...a crowd pleaser!

Save your sanity and your waistline by making these easy Chocolate Pretzels instead of the time-consuming, and calorie filled Christmas cookies and cakes. This dessert is so simple and you can make a ton of them (aka- give them out as gifts, and please a lot of happy mouths!)

  1. Cover a cookie sheet with wax paper and spread out a bunch of Bite Size Waffle Pretzels  
  2. Place 1 Hershey Kiss on top of each pretzel. 
  3. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees for about 4-6 min (until the hershey kiss melts and softens a little, it will still have the same shape) 
  4. Take them out and quickly smash down the kiss with 1 M&M (plain or peanut or get creative and use hugs) on top and in the center of each Hershey Kiss/Pretzel. 
  5. Then you let them cool 

They are small, convenient, and satisfy that chocolate salty craving! It sure beats the alternative of eating a slice of cake, pie, 
or cookies.
