Pretzel Wreaths

  1. Line up the pretzel rings on a baking sheet. I use nonstick pans, but it probably doesn't matter. I try to make sure the pretzels are right side up and not to use any that are chipped.
  2. Remove wrapper from Kisses and place one Kiss in the middle of each pretzel. Perfect for kids to do.
  3. Note: one bag of Kisses will fill a full sheet pan, with 25 Kisses left over. Use leftover/broken pretzels to make Strawberry Pretzel Dessert (for which I have found many recipes here on Tasty Kitchen) so nothing goes to waste.
  4. Bake in a preheated 200F oven. The Kisses won't look different (maybe a little shiny looking) as they keep their form when melted. So be sure not to over bake them. Five minutes really should be the perfect length.
  5. Put baking sheet on potholders as you will be working right on this hot pan. Remind kids not to touch the pan. Ouch!
  6. Place one M&M on top of a Kiss (one at a time) and smoosh it down into the chocolate. Not so far that the M&M gets covered, but just enough to force the Kiss to fill up the ring and the M&M to be secure (peek at the attached blog post link to see what I mean).
  7. Put the pan in the fridge so the Kisses can cool and harden. When set, just use a skinny metal spatula to pop them off the tray. No special storage needed, I just pop them in a bowl and leave uncovered. Share with friends.
  8. Flavor idea: try white Kisses with mint M&Ms.
  9. Tip: the pretzel rings are usually not found with the regular pretzels. Most stores have them at the end of an aisle with a holiday baking display. They have also been found at Aldi stores.
  10. Disclaimer: I have no idea how many servings this makes, I just chose the largest number available.
  11. Alternate version: use skinny pretzel sticks, white chocolate Kisses, and only yellow M&Ms to make Bacon & Eggs.
