Just made them and they’re so good! I couldn’t find the pretzel rings but Utz makes round pretzels called “wagon wheels” that have spokes inside. I used them and they worked just fine. It took quite a while to unwrap everything and assemble but the end result is very yummy! I may do this with my nieces and nephews next time as it’s easy and creates minimal mess!

Just made these on Sunday. I couldn’t find pretzel rings so I used the little square grids instead. I had to bake mine for 8 minutes to get the kiss warm enough to press down the m&m, but I think my oven temp is off. Very time consuming, but soooo yummy and totally worth it!

Instead of an M&M I use a reeses Pieces. Then you have pretzel, Chocolate & peanut butter. YUM!

These are great! I made these for Christmas the last few years. Like bjdfh said, Rollo’s are great in these, too! I topped a few of them with a cashew or pecan so it was like a “turtle.” Great recipe!

These are one of my favorites….my neighbor introduced me to them last year. She gave us some as gifts- with the White/Milk Chocolate kisses (not sure which they are- they are striped), and the M&M on the Square pretzels.

Yum!

We call these Bird’s Nests and they are a big hit with my family! The one store that carried the rings stopped several years ago supposedly because they pose a choking hazard. I have been ordering rings from Harvest Road/Snack-o-Rama since then. They used to carry pound bags but now only sell by the case. I buy the case and divvy up among friends who make Bird’s Nests, too. Hope this helps! BTW, the ‘waffle’ shape works-not quite as cute but still yummy:-)

These were easy and yummy. A little messy, but still lots of fun. My 5-year-old and 2-year-old made them; all I did was put them in the oven and take them out. We used square pretzels, and they were still really cute. Great idea, perfect for movie night!

i just made these this morning for little gifts for the mailman and my paperboy. really fun to make and easy! the mail man loved them and i’m sure the sparky the paperboy will have these eaten by the end of the driveway!! I also gave a baggie to a neighbor who helped me shovel the end of my driveway after the plow came by. these are great to have around the holidays for little gifts, granted that you keep out of them. not quite sure if i can manage that… DELISH!! lol thanks for the recipe!
