Make some easy and delicious treats for your holiday gifts this year. Â These are the perfect easy treats for friends, family, teachers, neighbors, and more!
Hello again, RTSTH readers! Â It’s Valerie from Occasionally Crafty, here with a fun treat and gift for the holidays!
My little treat idea is nothing new. You’ve probably made a version of it yourself. Â But if you haven’t, you are seriously missing out. Â These are the EASIEST treats to make, and almost everyone loves them!
I call my version Rudolph Nose Treats, and that’s because the finished product looks a little like a snout with a red nose on it. Â It’s perfect for the holidays.
You will need the following:
- Square Pretzels (I use Snyder’s)- although regular ones will work too.
- 1 bag of Rolos®
- Red M&M’s® ( I buy the holiday mix and pick the red ones out)
To make these, preheat your oven to 250 degrees and simply place your pretzels on a cookie sheet. Â I use my Silpat to line the sheet, but parchment paper works too.
Place an unwrapped Rolo® on top of each pretzel.  Try to center it.  One bag of Rolos® makes between 45-55 treats.
Put your pretzels into the oven for 3-4 minutes, until the caramel has begin to soften and sink.
While still warm, press a red M&M®, “M” side down, into the center of your Rolo®.  Push it down slightly so the caramel squishes into the pretzel.
Let cool in the fridge until firm.
Now- package these up for your friends or neighbors using a a cute bowl or cup, some plastic wrap, and my free printable Reindeer Treat Tags.
You’ve got an easy gift that took very little time, and looks great. Â Whoever gets these will think they’re won-deer-ful (sorry, couldn’t help myself!)
