Holiday Bites
I first made these Holiday Bites (Pretzel Bites? M+M on a Kiss on a Pretzel? Generic Name for melting pre-made things together?) with my Aunt when I was in high school, back when you could still find pretzels shaped like little circles. In recent years, I have been unable to find those Hershey’s Kiss-sized pretzel circles, so I opt for the less-cute-but-actually-available option of regular mini-pretezels.
These are definitely some of the easiest “Christmas Cookies” out there, but I still wanted to spotlight them here since they are so good. Pro-tip: these are best stored in a fridge to keep the chocolate from melting, and as a bonus, I think that they are more delicious cold than at room temperature. The recipe is provided below.

Makes as many as you have ingredients for. I was limited by the bag of Hershey’s Kisses.
Ingredients
- Hershey’s Kisses
- Mini-Pretzels
- M+M’s (preferably festive)
Preheat oven to 170F.
Spread pretzels over a baking sheet. Remove any broken pieces.
Unwrap Kisses, and place on top of pretzels.
Place baking sheet in preheated oven, and bake for 5 - 10 minutes.
Remove baking sheet from the oven and quickly press M+M’s into the tops of the Kisses before they cool.
Put the baking sheet in the freezer for approximately 10 minutes to help the chocolate to set. Remove from the freezer, and enjoy!
