These Hershey Kiss Pretzels have just the right balance of sweet and salty. They're easy to make and perfect for parties or just for a snack!

These Hershey Kiss Pretzels are easy to make and everyone loves them. I mean what's not to like? The salty pretzels combine with the sweet chocolate to make the perfect bite sized treat.
What You Need
- Hershey Kisses - Milk chocolate is my favorite
- Mini Pretzels - Look for a size just bigger than a Hershey Kiss. Mini pretzel twists or waffle-shaped pretzels work great
- M&Ms - this recipe uses traditional milk chocolate but any variety will work
- Baking Sheet Pan
- Silicon Baking Mat - optional, but makes cleanup easier
Variations
In the picture above you can see I used waffle pretzels, milk chocolate M&Ms and Christmas themed Hershey Kisses (just the wrapper, inside is standard milk chocolate). But you can customize them any way you like.
- Peppermint candy cane kisses are perfect for Christmas, especially if you pair them with the Christmas M&Ms.
- You can use the red, white, and pink M&Ms you can get around Valentine's day to make a sweet treat for your significant other.
- Use green M&Ms for Saint Patrick's day.
- The pastel colored M&Ms available in the spring are perfect for Easter, and also for wedding and baby showers.
- For Halloween, you can use pumpkin pie M&Ms or use candy corn instead.
- Skip the M&Ms altogether replace them with nuts. Pecans, hazelnuts, and macadamia nuts are all good options.
I don't like to overcrowd them but if you squeeze them in closer you can fit more on the baking sheet.
How to Make Hershey Kiss Pretzels
These Hershey Kiss Pretzels have just the right balance of sweet and salty. They're easy to make and perfect for parties or just for a snack!
Ingredients
- 35 Hershey's Kisses
- 35 Mini Pretzels
- 35 M&Ms
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 250 F. Place pretzels on a baking sheet in a single layer
- Unwrap the Hershey Kisses and place one on each pretzel. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until the chocolate is soft but not melted (about 3 to 5 minutes)
- While the chocolate is still soft, press one M&M into the top of each Kiss
- Allow to cool until the chocolate sets. You can pop the baking sheet in the fridge to speed up the cooling process
Notes
- I like to spread them out on a baking sheet so I fit about 35 to 40 per batch. If you squeeze them in you can fit more.
- The most time consuming part of making these Hershey Kiss Pretzels is having to unwrap each piece of candy. This is a great task to give to little helpers!
