Equipment
Ingredients
- 48 mini pretzel twists
- 24 dark salted caramel Rolos
- 48 candy eyeballs
- 24 red and brown M&M’s
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Cut half of the pretzel twists in half to make "antlers." It's okay if some break unevenly.
- Spread whole pretzels on the baking tray. Place a Rolo candy on each pretzel, near the bottom. Leave room at the top for the antlers.
- Bake in the oven for 2-3 minutes. The chocolate should soften but not melt completely.
- Take the tray out of the oven. Gently press two antler pretzels into the top of each Rolo.
- Add candy eyes near the top of the Rolo to make the face. Press 1 M&M onto the lower part for the nose.
- Let the chocolate harden. You can leave them at room temperature for 20 minutes or put them in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Notes
- This recipe is easy to half, double, or even triple, depending on how many you need or want.
- These pretzels come in different sizes. So, make sure that you pick the mini twists or tiny twists. If they are too large, the role will fall through.
- Watch the pretzels closely while they are in the oven. You need the Rolo to be soft enough to press down but not melted.
- If you are not able to get even halves, you can match the pieces up into sets of similar sizes. It doesn't have to be exact.
- Gently press down the M&M's and candy eyeballs so that they will stick to the chocolate.
