Sugar Cookie Pretzel Bites

A sweet and salty holiday snack packed with the familiar taste of sugar cookies at Christmas!

Sugar Cookie Pretzel Bites

I have tried just about every imaginable pairing of M&M and Kiss to make pretzel bites. I love these Sugar Cookie Pretzel Bites , but I also really like S’mores Pretzel Bites , Peppermint Pretzel Bites , and Mint M&M Christmas Pretzels. My all-time favorite are Rolo Pretzel Turtles!

I like to try new things. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. Don’t be afraid of experimenting. I guarantee break rooms all over the country would welcome baking mishaps!

What You’ll Need

48 Round Pretzels

48 Hersey’s Sugar Cookie Kisses

48 Crunchy Cookie M&M’s

How to Make Sugar Cookie Pretzel Bites

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Distribute 48 (or desired number) round pretzels evenly on the pan.

Unwrap 48 (equal amount to pretzels) Sugar Cookie Kisses.

Place unwrapped Hersey’s Sugar Cookie Kisses in the center of the pretzels.

Put in the oven for 4 minutes.

As soon as you remove the pan from the oven, press an M&M into the center of the Kisses.

Let cool until the Hersey’s Kisses have hardened.

Pretzels – You don’t have to use round pretzels. I prefer the round pretzels because the Kiss melts evenly, but they are only in the store’s during the holidays. The next best option is the square pretzels.

Quantity – It’s best to make one pan of these at a time. You don’t want to manage too many at once because the Kiss starts to set. You want to be able to easily press the M&M into the melted chocolate.

Seasonal Candy – Seasonal candy changes. One year they have a fun new flavors of Kisses & M&M’s, and the next year they don’t. Just get creative with what is available!
