Ingredients

  • 30 Snaps Pretzels
  • 30 Hershey’s Hugs candies,unwrapped
  • 30 Christmas (red and green)M&Ms candies

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 250°F. It’s a low temp because we’re just looking to soften the chocolate without fully melting it.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent any sticking (and make cleanup easier).
  • Lay your pretzels out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Unwrap your Hershey’s Hugs and place one on top of each pretzel. Make sure it’s centered so the chocolate melts evenly.
  • Pop the baking sheet in the oven for about 3 minutes. You want the Hugs to soften but not fully melt. Keep an eye on them!
  • Once out of the oven, quickly place one M&M in the center of each Hershey’s Hug, gently pressing down to create that signature "hug" effect.
  • Let the pretzel hugs sit for about an hour so the chocolate can firm up. If you’re in a hurry, you can pop them in the fridge to speed up the process.
