Pretzel Santa Hats

Bite-sized bits of North Pole magic, these Pretzel Santa Hats are just what your holiday needs!

Equipment

  • Wax paper
  • Scissors
  • Microwavable Containers
  • Cup and Ziplock Bag for Piping the Melted Candy

Ingredients

  • Red Candy Melts
  • White Candy Melts
  • White Sanding Sugar or Small Sprinkles (optional)
  • Pretzels
  • Mini Marshmallows

Instructions

  • Prepare your work surface with wax paper. This prevents the pretzels from sticking
  • Melt the red candy melts according to the directions on the packaging (in small intervals)
  • Place a ziplock baggie folded over a cup and pour the red candy melts inside the baggie
  • Snip the corner of the baggie off and fill in the pretzels with the melted red candy, as pictured and seen in the video
  • Let the red candy dry
  • Repeat steps #2-#4 with the white candy melts
  • Add the white melted candy to the lower half of each pretzel
  • Quickly add white sprinkles over the white candy before it dries (kids are great at this job!)
  • Cut a mini marshmallow in half, dab a little melted chocolate on the sticky side, and place it on the top of the hat
  • Allow the pretzels to dry completely and enjoy!
