Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 3 minutes
Total Time: 23 minutes
Servings: 20 Reindeer Pretzels

Ingredients

  • 40 small pretzels divided
  • 20 Rolo candies unwrapped
  • 40 candy eyes
  • 20 small round red candies any variety

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  • Using a cutting board and sharp chef’s knife, carefully cut the remaining 20 pretzels in half to form the antlers. We recommend cutting a few extra in case a few break while assembling the reindeer.
  • Line baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick pan liner. 
  • Place 20 pretzels on prepared baking sheet and add an unwrapped Rolo candy to the center of each pretzel.
  • Place the baking sheet with pretzels and Rolos in the preheated oven and bake for 3 minutes or until the candies are softened.
  • Remove sheet pan from oven and add eyes, nose and antlers to each Rolo. You will need to work quickly before the Rolos cool and harden. 
  • Allow the reindeer to cool completely before serving. If you want them to cool quicker, place the pan in the refrigerator.

Notes

Reindeer pretzels will keep at room temperature, but they will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator. Either way, store them in an airtight container.
Freezer: If you want to make them ahead of an event, or just store them for a little longer, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet before storing them in a freezer bag or airtight container.
