Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 48 Round Pretzels
  • 48 Hersey’s Hot Cocoa (or Chocolate) Kisses
  • 48 Mini-Marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for gentle melting of the chocolate and marshmallows.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  3. Arrange Pretzels: Evenly distribute 48 round pretzels on the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
  4. Unwrap Chocolate: Unwrap 48 Hersey’s Hot Cocoa or Chocolate Kisses, using the same number as the pretzels to ensure each bite has one chocolate piece.
  5. Place Chocolate on Pretzels: Place an unwrapped Kiss in the center of each pretzel, positioning them carefully to prevent sliding during baking.
  6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 4 minutes, just enough to soften the chocolate.
  7. Add Marshmallows: Immediately after removing the baking sheet from the oven, lightly press one mini-marshmallow into the center of each softened Kiss, allowing it to slightly melt and adhere.
  8. Cool and Harden: Let the s’mores pretzel bites cool at room temperature until the chocolate and marshmallow harden, ensuring they hold their shape when handled.

Notes

  • Do not overbake to avoid melting the pretzels completely or burning the chocolate.
  • You can substitute Hersey’s Kisses with any chocolate of your choice, such as milk, dark, or semi-sweet chocolate.
  • For a festive touch, use colored mini-marshmallows or add sprinkles on top immediately after pressing the marshmallow.
  • Store finished bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days for best texture.
