Bunny Pretzel Hugs

Sweet and salty – my most favorite treat! So when I saw these adorable bunny pretzels at Target today, I couldn’t grab a package of Hershey’s Hugs and get home fast enough to make these super cute Bunny Pretzel Hugs.

As you know, I am not the most coordinated in the kitchen. I have tried to make these pretzel treats before and was told they are idiot proof…. well apparently not. But this time they worked and came out SO CUTE!!!

So here is the secret – do not use anything except Hugs. Regular Hersey Kisses, Carmel Hersey Kisses, etc., do not work as well. There is something about the Hugs that create the perfect melting combination.

Ingredients

  • Bunny pretzels (I found them at Target, but they are seasonal and we never know if they are making them one year to another.)
  • Hershey’s Hugs
  • Sprinkles

How to Make Easter Bunny Hugs

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees
  2. Cover cookie sheet with wax paper
  3. Line up pretzels on cookie sheet
  4. Place a hug on top of each pretzel
  5. Place in oven for about 5 – 7 minutes (watch very carefully) and pull them out of the oven when they begin to melt
  6. Immediately place a second pretzel on top of the hug and gently press down
  7. Immediately sprinkle sprinkles 🙂 on top of the bunnies!
  8. Place in refrigerator for about 15

  5. I am definitely looking for these cute bunny pretzels to make these treats. I found the football pretzels early this year, but I have not seen the bunny ones. I am sure they are in Target and Walmart.

    I pinned these very cute treats.
    Blessings,
