Pretzel Snowmen

 Pretzel-Snowmen

These Pretzel Snowmen are the perfect addition to any holiday celebration. They are easy to make, affordable and a great kid friendly recipe to help get the kids involved in the kitchen. I love that they are adorable, cheap and of course kids love them. Do you want to build a snowman??

Whip up a batch of these adorable Pretzel Snowmen today! 

Ingredients

Pretzel Rings

candy Melts

Mini Chocolate Chips

candy Corn

Fruit Leather

 

Instructions

Melt candy Melts according to package directions and add to a small squeeze bottle.

 

Line a sheet pan with wax or parchment paper. Place a dime sized round of candy melt down on the paper.

Pretzel-Snowmen

Lay two pretzel rings flat touching together on top of the dime sized spot. Fill in each ring with candy Melt plus a small amount along the seam of where the pretzels are touching to hold them together.

Pretzel Snowmen

Add 2 Mini Chocolate chips for eyes in the top ring and 3 in the bottom ring for buttons.

Cut the orange part off of the candy corn, and cut that into nose size pieces, place on the top ring for the nose.

Pretzel Snowmen

Finish the remaining snowmen and let the melts set.

In a small bowl melt a few tablespoons of chocolate chips and add to a small squeeze bottle. (I washed out the bottle I just used and then added a couple of spoonful of the chocolate straight into the nozzle top of the bottle).

Pretzel Snowmen

Carefully squeeze out a small amount of chocolate and draw the smiles on the faces. Allow to set.

Cut the fruit leather into ¼ strips. Wrap around the middle of the two pretzels to make the scarf. Be careful when moving after adding the scarf, the fruit leather can stick and decapitation is much easier than you would think.

Pretzel Snowmen

Serve or store in an airtight container.
