Getting ready for the library’s open house by making Christmas treats.
I’ve never put these together… pretzel, peppermint kisses topped by a peppermint M&M. Simple, right? I shoved them in the oven, waiting for the kiss to melt down. It didn’t. By the time I went, seriously? It shouldn’t take so long! The chocolate kiss had dried out. Who knew they would do that?
The M&Ms wouldn’t even push down into the kiss without breaking it apart. Total fail… I had a few left, and found just leaving them in the oven for five minutes, no more… created the perfect treat I was looking for! Duh.
I’ll guess that the white/striped chocolate kisses have ingredients that behave differently than the milk chocolate kisses when baking. Glad you figured it out. They sure look delicious!
trail & error, remember the first person who thought about milking a cow- your treats certainly are festive!
so pretty.
