An easy, no-fuss holiday snack that’s fun for kids and great for partiesThese pretzel reindeer are sweet, salty, and delightfully imperfect. They’re meant to be playful, so don’t worry if the antlers aren’t symmetrical—kids will love creating their own versions!
1bagpretzelsat least 60 pretzels (I got all my ingredients from the bulk store! just get regular sized pretzels - not the big ones. I didn't count but the numbers are included just in case.)

Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the pretzels flat in a single layer.
Place one Rolo on top of each pretzel.
Bake at 250°F (120°C) for a few minutes, just until the Rolos are soft (watch closely).
While they warm, carefully cut extra pretzels in half to make antlers. Don’t worry if some break—extras help.
Remove from the oven and quickly decorate while the rolo chocolate is still soft. Press two pretzel halves in for antlers, one M&M for the nose and two candy eyes. (or get creative and do whatever you like!)
Let cool until the chocolate sets, then enjoy your Christmas treat!
