Easy Peasy Valentine Pretzel Treats
Aren’t these Valentine’s Day Pretzels SO cute?
Would you believe they only take 3 ingredients and about 10 minutes to make?
This is the perfect Valentine’s Day recipe to make when you’re short on time or want to make a quick gift for teachers, family, or a party treat.
My girls love to make food gifts with melted chocolate because those are the types of recipes that they can do with little assistance. These Valentine Pretzel Treats are fun to make with the kids! (Though they might try to sneak a few “taste tests!”)

Keep a close eye on your pretzel treats while they bake, as they only need a couple minutes in the oven. You will know they are ready when the chocolate looks wet and shiny.
TIP: The HUGS will not melt down — so don’t let that be the indicator that it’s time to take them out of the oven. If they bake for too long then the chocolate will crack and burn.
Remove cookie sheet from the oven and carefully place a candy conversation heart on top of each hug. Gently press so that the candy sinks down slightly into the melting Hershey’s Kiss. Careful, the melted chocolate and cookie sheet may still be hot.
Note: Adults should handle this step, or make sure that there is nothing hot enough to burn if kids are helping.
Allow to cool completely before storing or enjoying.
