Rolo Pretzel Bites

• servings: 12
• active time: 10 min
• total time: 15 min

Ingredients

25 small pretzels gluten-free if needed

25 Rolo’s

25 M&M’s or pecans/walnuts!

Directions

Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.

Place a single layer of pretzels on the baking sheet.

Place one Rolo on top of each pretzel.

Bake for 3-5 minutes until the Rolo has softened. (You don’t want the Rolos too melted.)

Remove from the oven and press the M&M or nut halfway down into the melted Rolo.

Let cool on the baking sheet completely. Enjoy!

Notes

Microwave Option: Just follow the same steps, but put the pretzel bites in the microwave, instead of the oven. Warm the treats at 50% power for 30 seconds until the Rolos are softened.

Gluten-Free: My favorite brand of gluten-free pretzels is Synder’s.

Variations: Feel free to get creative with these Rolo pretzel bites! Top them with peanut M&M’s, white chocolate M&M’s, a pecan half, almonds, etc.

Kid-Friendly: This is an easy Christmas baking project for kids! Create an assembly line and have fun with this sweet and salty holiday treat.

To Make-Ahead: These treats last long enough to make them a great make-ahead option!

To Store: Let them cool, then store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. You can also refrigerate them for up to 3 weeks.

To Freeze: These freeze well! After they cool, store them in an airtight container or freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
