Description

Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with these delightful Shamrock Pretzels! This easy, no-bake recipe combines the perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors, making it a festive treat for all ages.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 72 mini pretzel twists
  • 24 pretzel sticks
  • 24 Rolo candies
  • 24 green M&M’s

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 250°F (121°C).
  2. Arrange Pretzels: On a parchment-lined baking sheet, place three mini pretzel twists in a shamrock shape, with their bottoms touching. Position a pretzel stick at the bottom center to form the stem.
  3. Add Rolo Candies: Place a Rolo candy in the center where the three pretzels meet. Repeat this process for all pretzel sets.
  4. Bake: Put the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 minutes, just until the Rolos start to soften but aren’t fully melted.
  5. Add M&M’s: Remove from the oven and gently press a green M&M into the center of each softened Rolo, ensuring it connects all three pretzels.
  6. Set: Allow the pretzels to cool at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or place them in the refrigerator for quicker setting.

Notes

  • Storage: Keep the shamrock pretzels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
  • Variations: For a different twist, use Hershey’s Kisses instead of Rolos, or dip the pretzels in green candy melts and decorate with festive sprinkles.
