How to Make Flower Pretzels with M&Ms

Pretzel Flower Ingredients

• Butter Snap Pretzels: I use the ones by Snyder’s of Hanover, but you can use whatever kind you prefer.
• Pastel Easter M&Ms
• White Candy Melts: You can also use milk chocolate or dark chocolate for a different twist.

Kitchen Essentials Needed

• Baking Sheet
• Parchment Paper

Pretzel Flowers Tips & Tricks

• For the ingredient amounts, a bag of pretzels and white candy melts will make plenty of candies, but depending on the size M&M bag, you may need more than one. The more M&Ms you have, the more candies you can make.
• You have to work quickly, so for the best results stick to about 10-12 pretzels at a time, and pre-sort your M&M colors before you start.
• Be sure not to melt the candy melts too much- You want them just soft enough that the M&Ms will stick to them, but you don’t want them to turn to liquid!

Ingredients

• Butter Snap Pretzels
• Pastel Easter M&Ms
• White Candy Melts

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place butter snap pretzels onto the parchment, and top each pretzel with a candy melt.
3. 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.
4. You have to work quickly, for the best results stick to about 10-12 pretzels at a time, and pre-sort your colors.
5. Alternatively, microwave the candy melt-topped pretzels for 45-50 seconds.
6. Press the M&Ms into the melty candy melts to create the flowers.
7. Allow the candy to set for about 30 minutes, and enjoy.
8. For the ingredient amounts, a bag of pretzels and white candy melts will make plenty of candies, but depending on the size M&M bag, you may need more than one. The more M&Ms you have, the more candies you can make.
