Easy Christmas Candy
Someone made me the best (and easiest) Christmas candy. First off, I LOVE sweet & salty, so this fits the bill!
Heat oven to 170. 1 bag Hershey's hugs or kisses - the swirled hugs (choc & vanilla or peppermint) are really pretty 1 bag of the little, flat, one inch square pretzels - it's the pretzels shaped in a grid, like a tic tac toe grid. 1 bag of red & green M&Ms place the little pretzel squares onto a cookie sheet put a hug or kiss on top of each square - do not mix hugs and kisses in the same batch, use one or the other. Put in the oven for 6 minutes for hugs and 4 minutes for kisses Take out immediately when time is up and then carefully press an M&M flat into the top of the soft kiss/hug (don't mash it all the way down to the pretzel - just press it lightly into the hug/kiss so it will stay put on top after cooling). The soft kiss/hug will spread out to almost cover the pretzel square. Let cool and enjoy. After cooling, they can be stacked on each other and packaged for gift giving. They are delicious and very pretty! I made some this morning and they are still hot, but I took some pix with my phone (not best quality) so you could see how cute they are. __________________

Those look so good Gayle. I've not seen the square pretzels before, but then again...never looked for them. I will now.

Betsi posted on FB she was eating the candy cane Hershey kisses. I just wanted to remind everyone of the EASIEST Christmas candy EVER! You can use any type of kiss, chocolate, caramel filled or PEPPERMINT!
The picture I included on the first post in this thread is using the peppermint kisses! They make a really festive Christmas look.

I had forgotten about these, Gayle! I never should have bought that bag of candy cane kisses. I just love those things, and now I want MORE!! I'm glad they're only available once a year

Oh! They are sooooo easy! Perfect for kids to make. Just be sure to not leave them in the oven too long or they will melt right down and stick to the pan.
