These sweet-and-salty bites are the perfect quick treat when you want something a little indulgent without fuss. They come together in minutes and work for parties, holidays, or just because. Crisp pretzels, creamy Hugs, and a mini Kiss on top make a crunchy, chocolatey combo that’s delightfully simple and satisfying.
Hugs and Kisses Pretzel Snaps
Makes about 30 snaps – per serving estimate: 28 calories, 1.3 g fat, 0 g fiber, 2.7 g carbs, 0.3 g protein, 2.3 g sugars
Ingredients:
- 30 pretzel snaps (thin, flat pretzels work best)
- 30 Hershey Hugs (unwrapped)
- 30 mini Hershey Kisses (found in the baking aisle)
- Colored sprinkles, optional
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Arrange the pretzel snaps in a single layer on the sheet and set an unwrapped Hug on top of each pretzel.
- Bake for about 4 minutes. Watch closely—the Hugs should become glossy and slightly soft but not fully melted.
- Remove the pan from the oven and immediately press a mini Kiss into the center of each softened Hug. Press gently so the Kiss nests into the Hug without breaking the pretzel.
- If desired, sprinkle a few colored sprinkles on each snap right after pressing the Kiss in place.
- Chill the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes to set the chocolates. Do not leave them in the fridge longer than needed, as they can sweat when returned to room temperature.
- Store the finished snaps in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 6 days.
These treats are quick, crowd-pleasing, and easy to adapt—try different sprinkles or substitute mint or caramel-filled kisses for flavor variations. Enjoy!
