Easter Bunny Pretzel Treats

Cute bunny pretzel treats are easy to make in about 15 minutes. Your kids will love helping you with this simple Easter treat.
Prep Time15 minutes
Setting Up Time15 minutes

Ingredients

  • Pretzel Snaps such as Snyder's brand
  • White Candy Melts
  • Spring Colored M&Ms
  • Fine Tip Food Marker optional

Instructions

  • Begin by cutting some of the M&Ms in half. Sort out as many M&Ms as you'll need by color (1 whole M&M and 2 halves for each pretzel treat).
  • Lay pretzel snaps out on a microwave safe plate (a paper plate works great). Top each pretzel with one white candy melt. Microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds at a time until the candy is soft and somewhat melted.
  • Working quickly, drop a whole M&M onto each pretzel, then add two M&M halves to make ears. Gently press the M&Ms into the melty candy.
  • Allow candy melts to set up completely - this should only take about 15 minutes. Then draw on faces if desired. Let ink set for a couple minutes before touching the treats.

Notes

You'll be able to make LOTS of these bunny treats with one bag each of pretzels, candy melts, and M&Ms. However, you will want to work in batches of 25 (or less if kids are helping) because the candy melts set up quickly. If some of the candy melts do set up before you are able to add the bunny, simply move those pretzels to another paper plate and microwave again at 50% power for 30 seconds at a time until soft.
