Candy Corn Pretzel Bites Ingredients

How to Make Candy Corn Pretzel Bites
These easy fall pretzel treats couldn’t be simpler to make! They’re perfect when you need a last-minute party snack without spending hours in the kitchen.
Step 1: Prepare the pretzels. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the 24 pretzels in a single layer.
Step 2: Add the chocolates. Place one Rolo on 12 of the pretzels and one Hershey’s Hug on each of the remaining 12.
Step 3: Warm in the oven. Bake for about 3 minutes, just until the chocolates soften. You don’t want them to completely melt!
Step 4: Add the candy corn. Remove from the oven and immediately press one piece of candy corn into each softened chocolate. Start with the Rolos, then gently add the candy corn to the Hugs.
Step 5: Let them set. Allow the pretzel bites to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 15 minutes until firm.
And that’s it! Your sweet and salty candy corn pretzel bites are ready to enjoy!
Tips & Easy Variations
These fun fall pretzel treats are super easy to customize!
- Top the Rolos first: Add the candy corn to the Rolos before moving to the Hugs, as the Hugs tend to soften more quickly.
- Don’t press too hard: Gently press the candy corn into the chocolate so it doesn’t flatten or lose its shape.
- Try different pretzels: Square snaps work best, but round pretzels or mini twists also work.
- Swap the candy corn: Try Reese’s Pieces for a delicious peanut butter and chocolate combination.
- Make them set faster: Pop the baking sheet in the fridge for 15 minutes if you’re in a hurry!
How to Store Candy Corn Pretzel Bites
These candy corn pretzel treats are perfect for making ahead for fall parties, Thanksgiving gatherings, or Halloween celebrations!
Once the chocolate has completely set, transfer the bites to an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place for up to a week.
If your kitchen is warm, you can also keep them in the refrigerator to prevent the chocolate from getting too soft.
Just make sure they’re completely set before stacking them so they don’t stick together!
