It’s Christmas candy making time! Or at least, it will be soon.? I’ve been testing recipes in the kitchen lately, and plan to share some of my favorites here on the blog in the next few weeks. Today, I’m sharing a recipe for Pretzel M&M Hugs.

These treats are classic. They’re simple to make and come together with only three ingredients! I don’t know about you, but during the holidays, I have a pretty long to-do list.

While cookie and candy making is on the list, I never look for long, complicated recipes. I need something quick, easy and delicious. These Pretzel M&M Hugs fit the bill for sure!

Your Ingredient List

Ready for this? You probably don’t even need to write this down. You need pretzels, M&Ms and Hershey’s Hugs. That’s it? That’s it.

I like using square-shaped pretzels because they look nice and provide good support for the Hugs you’re going to melt on top of them.

Assembling the Treats

You begin by lining your baking pan with pretzels.

Next, you take unwrapped Hugs and place one on top of each of the pretzels.

After you place them in the preheated oven for about 4-5 minutes, the Hugs will turn “glossy.” Pull the pan out of the oven and gently press an M&M into each of the Hugs, flattening them a bit.

Allow them to cool. I usually place mine in the fridge, but if I’m making multiple pans worth, I’ve been known to cool them on a shelf in the garage and even outside on our deck. That’s a nice benefit of a cold, Wisconsin winter, I guess!

Enjoying Your Pretzel M&M Hugs

These tasty and addictive treats can be made up to a week ahead of time and are perfect for gift giving. Keep them in the refrigerator in a covered bowl until you are ready to serve them.

Happy baking!!
