Pretzel Candies

Here are two quick recipes for some salty and sweet candies.  If you have kids, these won't last so make a bunch! 

Chocolate Pretzel Rings

Place pretzel rings on greased or parchment lined baking sheet.  Place a chocolate kiss in the center of each pretzel.  Bake at 275 degrees for 2-3 mintues or until chocolate is softened.  Remove from oven.  Place an M&M on each, pressing down so chocolate fills the pretzel.  Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until choclate is firm.  This will also work with Hershey Hugs as well and Candy Cane Kisses at Christmastime!

Pecan Caramel Candies

Place mini pretzels on foil lined baking sheet.  Place a Rolo candy in the center of each pretzel.  Bake at 250 degrees for 4 minutes or until candies are softened.  They will retain their shape.  Place a pecan half on each pressing down so chocolate fills each pretzel.  Cool slightly.  Refrigerate for 10 minutes until set.
