My favorite Christmas dessert is pretzel kisses & hugs! I added a little bit of a twist to the classic recipe. Instead of using regular Hershey kisses, I used peppermint, white chocolate kisses. It is the perfect combination of sweet and salty. It is also the perfect treat to bring to a holiday gathering.

Easy Christmas Desserts
Before you get started, make sure you have the ingredients you need. You will square pretzels, peppermint Hershey kisses and Christmas colored M&Ms. You will also need parchment paper or aluminum foil to line your cookie sheet. Here is my favorite cookie sheet.
First, preheat your oven to 300°F. Then go ahead and line your cookie sheet. I swear, these are the easiest Christmas dessert ever.

Next step, line your pan with square pretzels, about ½ an inch apart. After you line your pan, unwrap your kisses and set them on top of your pretzel (make sure they are centered). PRO TIP- get your kids to unwrap the kisses for you, haha.
Go ahead and pop them in the oven at 300°F for 2-3 mins, until the kisses are slightly melted. Once they are slightly melted, grab your M&Ms. Set one M&M on top of each kiss. Then set them aside to cool.
