    Ingredients:

    Servings:

    0

    • 1 (15 ounce) bags square waffle pretzels
    • 2 (13 ounce) bags Hershey's chocolate kisses
    • 1 (14 ounce) bags peanut butter M&M's
    • Change Measurements: US | Metric

    Directions:

    Prep Time: 15 mins

    Total Time: 20 mins

    1. 1 Turn oven onto warm (approximately 170 degrees).
    2. 2 Line a cookie sheet with the pretzels.
    3. 3 I used a cookie sheet with sides so that they would not slide off.
    4. 4 Unwrap a Hershey Kiss and place it in the center of each pretzel and continue doing that until every pretzel has a Hershey Kiss sitting on top of it.
    5. 5 Place cookie sheet in oven.
    6. 6 Check them every few minutes until the Hershey Kiss gets glossy.
    7. 7 This takes about 5 minutes.
    8. 8 In the meantime put the M&M's in a bowl.
    9. 9 When the Hershey Kiss is sufficently melted (it will still look like a kiss, but will be shiny) take the cookie sheet out of the oven.
    10. 10 Take one M&M and place it on top of the Hershey Kiss and give it a little"squish".
    11. 11 This pushes the chocolate into the pretzel and adheres all three pieces together.
    12. 12 I used all of the colorful M&M's and ate the brown ones!
    13. 13 Do this until each pretzel/kiss is topped with a M&M.
    14. 14 I placed the whole cookie sheet in the refrigerator until they firmed up.
    15. 15 I've also used the Hershey Hugs instead of the Hershey Kisses.
    16. 16 The Hershey Hugs will melt FASTER than the Hershey Kisses, so watch carefully!
    17. 17 I've also used plain M&M's instead of the peanut butter ones as well.

      this is an awesome recipe! so easy to make that kids can help also. they look great and taste yummy. 5 stars all the way! our family's preference is for Rollos (heated at 250 degrees for 3-4 minutes) and peanut M&Ms.

      We made these for our daughter to take to preschool. There are about 7 or 8 classrooms down her hallway and we had parents from every room asking about the recipe while OHHing and AHHing... more importantly the kids in her class LOVED them!

      I made this for a meeting and it was a big hit. It can be made for an everyday snack or change the colors for a special holiday. I used regular m&ms so that there wouldn't be an allergy issue.I used a 350 degree oven and watched the kisses till soft & it was super quick. Kids and adults alike loved it. I will make this again. It is easy and super fun to make with your child. Thanks lil pilgrim! ChefDLH

      My son needed something to take to a school party, and I had this in my cookbooks for a long time, and decided the kids would love it, and they sure did. This is so addictive. My son brought home and empty bowl. I had to make another batch just for us, and then we devoured it too! I used Snyder's butter pretzels, and the taste was great! Thanks for sharing.

      These are addictive! Also try putting a rolo candy instead of hershey kiss and a walnut instead of the m&m, super good this way too!

      YUMMY! I loved these, I used stars like I had seen another reviewer use and love the way they looked after I put the M&M on it. Very quick and easy from start to finish about 15 minutes for one small bag of stars(approx 30-40)!!! Love Love Love Them!!!

      My seven year old daughter and her friends made these last night during a sleepover at our home! I couldn't find waffle pretzels, so we just used the small traditional pretzels, but they worked fine. Times and temperatures were right on. We used regular kisses and plain M&Ms. They have such a fun, whimsical presentation! I think they'd be great for a class party at school, or birthday party snack too! Thanks for sharing!

      I made these with Kissables instead of M&M's (the Christmas ones: red, green, and white). They looked real cute and everyone loved them. I found the round waffle pretzels, and they're just the right size for the kisses. Made for Alphabet Soup Game. Thanks for posting a winner!.

    This is a fun, easy recipe and it's very addictive. It's fun to change the colors of the M&M's with the holidays! I got this recipe from a friend of mine and I believe that she got it out of Taste of Home magazine possibly?? The quantity that you'll get will depend on the number of pretzels that are in the particular bag that you're buying. Be sure to allow for broken pretzels in the bag as that's just inevitable. I have only been able to find the "square" pretzels at Walmart.
