- wax paper or parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce bag) Square Pretzel Snaps
- 1 (12 ounce bag) White Candy Melts
- 1 (10 ounce bag) Spring Colored M&Ms
- Fine Tip Food Marker
Instructions
- Determine how many pretzel bunnies you would like to make. Sort out as many M&Ms as you'll need by color (1 whole M&M and 2 halves for each pretzel treat). With a sharp knife, cut some of the M&Ms in half for the ears.1 (16 ounce bag) Square Pretzel Snaps, 1 (12 ounce bag) White Candy Melts
- On a wax paper or parchment paper lined microwave-safe plate, lay 9-10 pretzel snaps out (see notes).
- Top each pretzel with one white candy melt. Microwave for 30 to 50 seconds until the candy is soft and somewhat melted. (You want the candy to be soft enough to press an M&M into it, but not so melty that it’s dripping through the pretzel.)
- Working quickly, press a whole M&M onto each pretzel, then add two M&M halves to make ears.1 (10 ounce bag) Spring Colored M&Ms
- Allow the white candies to cool and harden before drawing two eyes and a nose on the M&Ms.Fine Tip Food Marker
- Store in airtight container for up to one week.

Notes
Prep Tips - You can make lots of these bunny treats with one bag each of pretzels, candy melts, and M&Ms. However, work in batches of 10 or less, because the candy melts set up quickly. If some of the candy melts do set up before you are able to add the M&Ms simply microwave again.
