Pretzel Treats

PRETZEL TREATS

Preheat your oven to 225 degrees. Now, spread the round pretzels on a cookie sheet so that they lie flat. Place one kiss in each pretzel. Allow the kisses to melt. Don’t leave the room. This really takes only 3 or 4 minutes. Maybe less, depending on your oven. Take them out as soon as the kisses are melted, but still hold their shape. If you leave them in too long, they will dry out and become hard. Now, press one M&M; into each kiss. Push them around a little so that chocolate touches all.
