Pumpkin Pretzel Bites Recipe December 15, 2021October 23, 2017 These easy pumpkin pretzel bites are an easy salty + sweet Fall snack that you won’t be able to stop munching on! I’m pretty picky about my pumpkin consumption. Generally, my rule is that I stay away from pretty much anything pumpkin that is NOT baked. I think the “fresh” pumpkin flavor is just too overwhelming, and it desperately needs some butter, sugar, and flour to even it out a little bit. My exceptions to the must-be-baked rule almost entirely include pumpkin treats that have been made with pumpkin FLAVOR (not real pumpkin). Like this pumpkin cream pie made with pumpkin pudding mix– that’s something I can get behind! Or this pumpkin fudge made with pumpkin spice morsels (like chocolate chips). Or these pumpkin pretzel bites! With a pretzel on the bottom, a Pumpkin Hershey Kiss, an M&M, and a drizzle of white or dark chocolate these poppable pumpkin bites are pretty irresistible. I entirely surprised myself by loving those pumpkin Hershey Kisses. Like I said– I’m picky about pumpkin treats. And these just did not look or smell all that appealing. But in the name of research, I tried one. And then another. And then another. And then I was hooked. Add to that a little salty crunch and an M&M and I never really stood a chance against these little guys. Another obviously awesome thing about this recipe is that it is SO EASY. And pretty quick too. You could skip the chocolate drizzle at the end, but I’m going to advise you not to for two reasons: ☝???? I’m sorry to say it, but these kind of look like boobs without the chocolate drizzle on top ????! And I swear, I don’t think it’s that my mind is in the gutter over here ????. You have to admit the pumpkin Kisses are pretty close to flesh colored. And the way they melt in the oven.. well, you’ll see! And ✌???? Is there anything not made better by a chocolate drizzle? It adds the perfect texture and flavor. I really feel like it balances out the strength of the pumpkin flavor just right. Enjoy!
White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms Recipe August 13, 2024July 18, 2017 These White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms are super easy, gooey rice krispie treats with M&MS and a white chocolate drizzle. Since the beginning of summer vacation, my kids and I have been on a major rice krispie treat kick. We buy the mega box at Sam’s club, and lasts us about a week (although, I suspect my husband is going through them faster than the kids are). Basically, we really heart rice krispie treats. And this is the MacDaddy recipe of them all. Insane gooey-ness. M&Ms. And a white chocolate drizzle on top. These White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms are my hands down favorite rice krispie treat of all time (and that includes, Biscoff RKT, Toasted Marshmallow RKT, and Butterfinger Butterscotch RKT— all of which are hard to beat). There is something about this flavor and texture combo that is just so right, know what I mean? If you like rice krispie treats, you are going to flip for these! Added bonus: *NO BAKING* Because it is waaaaaaaaaay too hot for that nonsense. Turn off the oven and dig into these instead! Woot! Making White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms Making White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms is a simple and fun way to create a colorful, sweet snack that’s perfect for any occasion. Start by melting together butter and miniature marshmallows in the microwave, stirring until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This step takes just a few minutes, and the gooey marshmallow blend will form the sticky base that holds the treats together. Once the marshmallows are fully melted, mix in the Rice Krispies cereal, ensuring that each piece is evenly coated. The key to adding the M&Ms is to fold them in gently—this helps prevent the candies from cracking or the chocolate from melting too much, preserving the bright, festive look of your treats. After the mixture is ready, press it gently into a parchment-lined or well-greased 9×9 baking dish. It’s important not to press too hard, as you want the treats to remain light and chewy. Allow the mixture to cool for about 30 minutes, or until it’s firm to the touch and no longer warm. Once set, cut the treats into bars and drizzle them with melted white chocolate for an extra layer of sweetness. For a final touch, top with additional M&Ms to make your treats even more vibrant and fun. These White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats with M&Ms are not only easy to make but also a hit with both kids and adults alike! Enjoy 🙂
