These pretzel candies are very easy to make and they taste delicious. They’re easy enough for kids to help with, too!

Bake at 170 degrees for 4-8 minutes until the chocolate is soft but not totally melted.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and quickly press an M&M candy into the center of each pretzel, on top of the softened Hug.
