Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the pretzels in a single layer.
Add Hershey’s Hugs: Place one Hershey’s Hug on the center of each pretzel. Bake for 4–5 minutes until the Hugs are soft but hold their shape.
Add M&M’s: Remove from the oven and press one M&M gently into the center of each Hug. Cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until set.
Store: Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

Notes

You can use Hershey’s Kisses or Rolos for a flavor variation.
Avoid overbaking to maintain the chocolate’s shape.
