Easy Pretzel Reindeers with Chocolate
These adorable reindeer pretzels are an easy no-bake treat perfect for holiday snacking or gifting. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a fun and festive sweet-and-salty snack in no time!
Ingredients
- 30 mini pretzel twists
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 30 pretzel snaps square pretzels
- 30 red M&Ms
- 60 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cut each pretzel twist in half lengthwise using a serrated knife to create the reindeer antlers.
- Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring until smooth.
- Dip a pretzel snap into the melted chocolate using a fork to coat it. Gently tap the fork to shake off any excess chocolate and place the covered pretzel on the prepared baking sheet.
- Moving quickly so the chocolate doesn't set, attach two pretzel twist halves to the top of the square pretzel to create the antlers. Next, add an M&M in the center of the lower part of the pretzel to make the nose. Finally, add two eyes above the red M&M to finish the face.
- Repeat with the remaining pretzels. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature in a cool area of the kitchen for about an hour before serving.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for a week or two.
- I do not recommend freezing these treats as the pretzels will become stale, and the candy eyeballs will likely bleed.
