    Easy Pretzel Kisses

    Pretzel Kisses, or Kiss Pretzels, are a festive and delicious treat to share, especially this holiday season. They’re easy to make, and perfect for parties or as part of your Christmas cookie platters!

    Christmas pretzels are also the perfect addition to any Christmas gift baskets! The best part about this recipe is that they aren’t just for winter holidays–I love making these Hershey kisses pretzels in the summertime too! Honestly, I could eat this salty sweet treat every day, all year long!

    Are they Pretzel Kisses or Pretzel Hugs?

    I have always called them pretzel kisses. Hubby calls them pretzel hugs. It seems more people call them Hershey Kiss Pretzels with M&Ms. No matter what you call them, they are delicious. I think a lot of people use Hug Kisses during the Christmas season, which is how they got the name pretzel hugs but you can use whatever kind of Kisses that you like making these the best pretzel treat ever!

    How to Store Pretzel and Hershey Kiss Snack

    You will want to make sure these are stored in an airtight container. You can use a container or a freezer bag to store them in a plastic container. The pretzels should not be stored in the refrigerator. This will cause the pretzels to get soft and they will lose their crispiness. Make sure they are not stored in direct sunlight. This will soften the chocolate and can melt it causing it to come off the pretzel.

    How Many Hershey Kiss Pretzels Does It Make

    In a typical size bag, about 11 – 12 ounces, there are approximately 75 pieces of candy or 1 batch. That means you can make about 75 pretzel kisses, if you can resist eating any as you go. When you are using a family size bag of mini pretzels, you can make about 5 batches of

    Variation to This Pretzel Treat

    Since there are so many type of kisses out there and so many variety of M&Ms, there is no end to the ways you can change up these treats. You can use almost any kind of kisses and any kind of M&Ms. In these pictures, I am using Birthday Hershey Kisses with regular M&Ms. You can also use Reeses for a special treat. I have made these with both Reeses pieces and with Reeses cups. You can also use Rolos for a delicious treat. if you use anything other thank the traditional Hershey Kisses, just watch the time. Some chocolate take less time compared to others.

    How Many Weight watchers Points in Pretzel Kisses

    As much as I love these, I can not say that they are a low point treat. However, if you have will power (me, not so much) you can easily enjoy these without throwing yourself completely off track. Each one comes in at 1 point each or 9 points for 7 (because 1 pretzel is 0 points but 7 pretzels are 1 points and 7 kisses are 8 points)

      You’ve updated your site again! I LOVE it! It’s just MY stule!!! Very girly!!!

      Your kisses are very similar to my “Poor Man’s Millioinaires” that I posted around Christmas. Of course, these are much more kid friendly since mine had pecans on top. I LOVE the look of the strawberry swirl.. Then again, I love anything strawberry! I’m pinning and stumbling this!
