Notes

  • Bake the Christmas pretzels just until the chocolates are soft but still hold their shape. If they’re still a bit firm, return the pan to the oven for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Some chocolates melt faster than others. Hershey’s Kisses take about 3 to 4 minutes, while Hershey’s Hugs soften quickly and only need around 2 minutes!
  • Wait for the candies to set before serving or packing your pretzel treats, or they might get messy. You can chill them in the fridge for 10 minutes to help them set faster!
