Description

Quick and easy bite-sized treats featuring crunchy pretzels, melty Rolos, and festive M&M’s, perfect for sharing on Valentine’s Day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 60 pretzel snaps
  • 60 Rolo candies, unwrapped
  • 60 Valentine’s Mix M&M’s (pink, red, and white)
  • Heart-shaped or Valentine’s Day colored sprinkles
  • Sea salt flakes (optional)
  • Mini white chocolate chips (optional)
  • Crushed freeze-dried strawberries (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange pretzel snaps in neat rows on the cookie sheet.
  3. Place one Rolo flat-side down in the center of each pretzel.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 4 to 5 minutes until the Rolos are glossy.
  5. Press one M&M onto the center of each softened Rolo.
  6. Sprinkle heart-shaped sprinkles over the warm bites.
  7. Let them cool at room temperature for about 2 hours or refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
  8. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Notes

Ensure not to bake at too high a temperature to prevent melting the Rolos excessively. Adjust bake time for a softer or firmer texture as desired.
