Christmas Pretzel Hugs
Take a salty waffle pretzel, add a sweet Hugs Chocolate Kiss and a M & M on top for the perfect Christmas snack. I made these with my 10-year-old granddaughter and we had so much fun. This could be a really fun snack to make with your little ones too.

Place parchment paper on a large
baking sheet or use a silicone mat.
Place about 70 waffle pretzels
on the parchment paper.
Unwrap the Hugs and pour
the M & M’s into a small bowl.
Place one Hugs on top of each pretzel.
Bake in a preheated 200 degree oven
for 4-6 minutes. Watch carefully after
4 minutes, mine took 6 minutes and
looked like this when they were ready.
Remove from the oven and immediately
drop one M & M in the middle of the
melted candy. Make sure the candy is
completely cool and set before
packaging them or stacking them.

Ingredients
- 70 Hershey Hugs Kisses (or chocolate kisses)
- 70 waffle salted pretzels
- 35 red M & M’s
- 35 green M & M’s
Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone mat.
- Place the pretzels on the parchment paper or mat.
- Unwrap the Hugs Kisses and place them into a small bowl. Place the M & M’s into another small bowl.
- Place one Hugs Kiss on top of each pretzel.
- Bake for 4-6 minutes watching carefully after 4 minutes. The chocolate should have melted enough that the tip is gone. Remove from the oven.
- Place one M & M on top of one pretzel/chocolate and press lightly. If the chocolate is melted enough the M & M will sink slightly into the chocolate smoothly. If not, put it back into the oven in one minute intervals until melted. Immediately finish placing the M & M’s on top of the rest of the pretzels/chocolate.
- Allow the chocolate to completely cool and set before removing them from the baking sheet. I put mine in the refrigerator to set. Store in a covered container at room temperature.

Thank you so much! 💕
This is so awesome. I know what Peter and I will be doing next Thursday.
My granddaughter LOVED doing these, she even unwrapped all of the hugs herself. I bet Peter will too. ❤️
Peter will not be unwrapping them, there won’t be any left. He loves his sweets too much.
Haha My grandson probably would have too. My granddaughter unwrapped all of them then kept the foil wrapper to make a foil ball. Lol
Wow! They look so beautiful that I would be afraid to eat them! Thank you for sharing the recipe! 🙂
Awe what a nice comment! Thank you❤️
You are more than welcome!
❤ 🔆 🌈
I remember when I first discovered Hugs in my teens. They are my favourite, and I prefer them more to Kisses (chocolate kind, I welcome real kisses anytime!). These look wonderful and straightforward to make. Will add them to the list. I’m for sure gonna tackle the pretzels.
I know how you love white chocolate! These are the easiest and quickest snack ever not to mention delicious.
How fun! – and easy! I will probably be making these with my grandchildren. ☺️👍
They will have as much fun unwrapping the hugs as my granddaughter did. She thought this was so much fun, your grandchildren will have fun too!
Wonderful!
Thank you Jessica!
You’re welcome!
I will try this! We just made these last week in club with Rolo candies and Pecans!
My daughter makes them that way too I never have.
Your grandbabies must love it when they spend time with you!
They are at our house a lot so I have to keep them busy. Now that they are older, 7 & 10, they just help themselves to all my craft supplies and even make crafts by themselves. I try to get them both involve in cooking. My 10 year old loves to cook and bake, my 7 year old just wants to eat! Lol
How pretty to look at and your granddaughter made them!
We did them together but hers looked better than mine and she made sure I knew it! 😂
Thank you for sharing this, I tried to comment on your site but comment button didn’t work.
It’s got Christmas written all over! This could be a fun time in the kitchen with children 😊.
It sure was my granddaughter had so much fun making them and my grandson had more fun eating them! 😂
Those sound so good and look festive.
Thank you they are so tasty and easy to make.
I love this idea! A person could package these in festive bags and give them as presents.
I sent a bag with my granddaughter to give to her teacher. It is the perfect little gift. Thank you💕
Yes please 🙂
Thank you, you can’t beat that sweet and salty taste.
