Ingredients
- 48 Round Pretzels
- 48 Hershey's Hot Cocoa (or Chocolate) Kisses
- 48 Mini-Marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it is ready for melting the chocolate without burning.
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Arrange pretzels: Evenly distribute 48 round pretzels on the parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them so each has room for toppings.
- Unwrap chocolates: Unwrap 48 Hershey's Hot Cocoa or Chocolate Kisses, matching the number of pretzels arranged.
- Add chocolate to pretzels: Place one unwrapped Kiss on the center of each pretzel to prepare for melting.
- Melt the chocolate: Place the baking sheet with pretzels and chocolate into the oven for 4 minutes, allowing the chocolate to soften but not fully melt to the point of spreading too much.
- Top with marshmallows: Immediately after removing the pan from the oven, lightly press one mini-marshmallow onto the center of each melted Kiss to create a gooey topping.
- Cool and set: Let the bites cool until the chocolate and marshmallows have hardened slightly, making them easier to handle and enjoy.
Notes
- Use parchment paper to avoid sticking and make cleanup simple.
- Don’t leave the chocolate in the oven for too long to prevent burning or over-melting.
- You can substitute regular Hershey's Kisses if Hot Cocoa Kisses are not available.
- For an extra flavor twist, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top before the chocolate sets.
- Serve these bites at room temperature for best texture and flavor.
