Hershey Kiss & Pretzel Treats

This is a Christmas treat recipe dedicated to my mom.  She bought the pretzels and gave a few instructions on how to make them.  They were so easy.....my daughter ended up making them!  Here's what she did:

She put a piece of parchment paper on a cookie sheet.

Next, she laid out waffle shaped pretzels.

Then she placed striped Hershey Kisses on top.

She put them in a 200 degree oven until the kisses became shiny and the peaks began to melt.  She took them out and immediately pressed a red or green M&M into the melted kiss.

Because we live in Minnesota, our front step is perfect for cooling the chocolate.

These were a big hit with the "boys" in our family.....a little sweet and a little salty.  We've hidden them until all of our baking is done!
