If you’re hard pressed for time but really want to give your friends, neighbors, child’s teachers or the mail man a home-baked Christmas gift, then these 3 ingredient Christmas Pretzel Treats are the way to go!
Last night we had a friend visit our home for the first time and with it being the Christmas season, I really wanted to send her home with a Christmas plate laden with home-baked treats. Ideally this would mean a plate filled with Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, Coconut Snowballs or even several 3 ingredient Christmas Oreo Cookie Balls. Ideally.
But when she called fifteen minutes before setting foot into our home, I knew I needed to find something quick to do.
Thus the 3 ingredient Christmas Pretzel Treats!
All you need are pretzels, Rolos or Hershey’s kisses and Christmas (Red and Green M&Ms)…
that’s it!
- Pretzels Try and find pretty, if possible, Christmas themed, pretzels
- 1 bag of Caramel Rolos Hershey's Kisses (I love doing the Almond ones or even the Candy Cane ones)
- Christmas M&Ms Red and Green colored M&Ms
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
- Arrange the pretzels on a baking tray lined with parchment paper
- Place a Rolo/Hershey's Kiss in the center, on top of each pretzel
- Once done, pop the tray in the oven for 3-4 minutes (Not longer)
- Remove and quickly but gently place a red/green M&M on each softened Rolo/Hershey's Kiss
- Set aside to cool for about 15-20 minutes.
- And voila, your Christmas Pretzel Treats are ready!
What’s the quickest Christmas sweet recipe you make?

Those little treats are so easy to make, I am going to have to try this! I usually just bake a ton of cookies during the holidays, I need to switch it up a little!
Oh I love these! I hope my sister is making them again for Christmas.
My kids would love these. What a cute treat!
Love the salty-sweet combo. These are tasty and festive!!
These turned out really cute! Don’t feel bad about doing something quick, I bet she loved them!
Those look so good. And also super easy. That will be a perfect Christmas treat to take to my familys get together. Thanks for the info.
These are a favorite! We just have a problem sharing them. 😉 It’s almost as if they are made and really don’t last 24 hours in our house.
This is such a great treat to make when you’re running low on time because it’s so simple!
I love that these are so quick to whip up! I need to make more cookies. I keep making treats and then eating them (with help, of course) instead of giving them away!
Oh my…These are calling me. I hear my name….They look absolutely delicious! 🙂 Will have to try!
I can’t believe this is only 3 ingredients! They look so yummy.
We make these and they are super tasty! My favorite is chocolate peppermint bark because it only has two ingredients! 🙂
LOL – My son just looked at my screen and said that we have to make these NOW! 🙂
I just might make these this week to take to my mom’s house. They look so good, and I’m going with Rolos!
Yum, I make these with pecans, i cant wait to try them with M&M’s
These are always a big hit in my house. I could devour a plate in a day without even meaning it.
I made some of these the other day, half with M&Ms, and half with walnut pieces on top since my husband loves nuts. My quickest Christmas treat is probably my Rocky Road Squares – like 5 minutes to make, then they just have to cool.
AWESOME!! You had me at 3 ingredients!!! YUM!
i keep seeing this! why haven’t i made it yet?!?!
Looks yummy! Thank you for the recipe
I have made these and they are always a big hit. They can also be changed up for different holidays by changing the colors on the M & M’s.
My granddaughter loves these,
Who doesn’t have a shortage of time right around now? The quickest treat I make are slice and bake cookies. But these pretzels treats are just as easy, homemade, and probably much better. Great idea, and thanks for sharing.
