Flower Pretzel Bites
Ingredients
- 24 Butter Snap Pretzels
- 168 Pastel Easter M&Ms each flower takes 7 M&Ms
- 24 White Candy Melts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place butter snap pretzels onto the parchment, and top each pretzel with a candy melt.
- Heat in the oven for 3-4 minutes. You want the candy melts to be melted enough to press the M&Ms into, but not so melted that the candies won’t stick.
- You have to work quickly, for the best results stick to about 10-12 pretzels at a time, and pre-sort your colors.
- Alternatively, you can microwave the candy melt topped pretzels for 45-50 seconds.
- Press the M&Ms into the melty candy melts to create the flowers.
- Allow the candy to set for about 30 minutes, and enjoy!
