Their delicious mix of sweet and salty flavors makes them perfect for spring gatherings, Easter celebrations, or simply enjoying a special snack at home.

All I need are pretzels, white chocolate candy melts, and some festive Spring-themed M&M’s.

Ingredients

To make these tasty treats, I use:

• 72 Butter Snap Pretzels (square criss-cross style)
• 72 White Melting Wafers (I prefer the Ghirardelli brand since they cover the pretzels better than others)
• 38-ounce bag of Pastel Blend M&M’s (I love mixing it up with different colors for fun, especially during holidays!)

How to Make Flower Pretzel Bites

To get started, I preheat my oven to 250°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Then, I place 36 pretzel snaps on the trays. If it feels like too much, I can always work in smaller batches of 12.

Next, I put one white chocolate melting wafer on each pretzel. I bake them for about 2 minutes, just until the wafers soften. It’s important not to overdo it; I want them melted just enough to keep them on the pretzels.

Once they’re out of the oven, I press one M&M in the center and place six more around it to create flower petals. I keep repeating this with the remaining pretzels and M&Ms until I’m done. Let them set for about 20 minutes at room temperature or pop them in the fridge for 10 minutes to speed things up.

Storage

For storage, I keep my flower pretzel bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

If you’re thinking of a sweet Easter gift, consider packing these treats in cute cellophane bags. Tie them up with a colorful ribbon for a charming presentation. It’s a thoughtful way to share a homemade Easter candy gift with friends and family. These pretzel bites not only taste great but also bring a cheerful vibe to any gathering or celebration.
