👩‍🍳Recipe Notes

• Choose the right pretzels. Mini pretzels or pretzel squares work best as they provide a perfect base for attaching candies.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and make clean-up easier.
• Bake the pretzels with candies in the oven for a short time, typically 2-4 minutes, or until the candies are shiny and slightly softened. Be cautious not to overcook, as this can cause the candies to melt completely.
• As soon as you remove the baking tray from the oven, add the M&M candies.

🍶Storage Tips

• The easiest way to store these Reindeer Chocolate Pretzels is to place them in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Ensure the container is sealed properly to prevent air exposure.
