Rolo Pretzel Reindeer Recipe

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat.

Step 2

Cut your pretzel twist in half down the middle. Some will break in the process, but then you have some for snacking :)

Step 3

Place whole pretzels with the salted side down on the baking sheet. The rounded edge will be the top.

Step 4

Unwrap your Rolo candies and place one on each of the pretzels.

Step 5

Place the candies and pretzels in the oven until the chocolate softens but isn't totally melted about 1.5 - 2 minutes. It's essential to make sure they don't get too soft!!

Step 6

Begin decorating by inserting the antlers (pretzel halves with the broken side facing in) into the top of the Rolo candy. Next, place the candy nose towards the bottom of the Rolo Candy. Finally, place the candy eyes above the nose.

Step 7

Place your Christmas Pretzels in the freezer for 5-10 minutes or refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to cool and harden.
