Ingredients
- 12 Mini Reeses Peanut Butter Cups unwrapped
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips for melting
- 24 pretzel sticks
- 12 red M&Ms
- 24 Candy eyes
Instructions
- Place chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 20 second intervals, stirring between, until melted and smooth.
- Use a spoon, chopstick, etc. to place a large dab of melted chocolate onto a piece of parchment paper. Press two pretzel sticks into the melted chocolate.
- Place another drop of melted chocolate on top of the place where the two pretzels meet and press a mini peanut butter cup on top (with the smaller side facing up).
- Use melted chocolate to secure in place two candy eyes and one red M&M for the nose.
- Place baking sheet with the finished reindeer treats in the fridge or freezer for 30 minutes to set.
Notes
- Nutrition information is an estimate only and will vary based on exact ingredients used ands serving size.
- Prep Tips
- Place your sheet of parchment paper or foil onto a large cookie sheet or baking sheet. This will make it easy to move your candy Reindeer treats in and out of the fridge as needed.
- Put the baking sheet in the fridge or freezer for 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden before serving.
- I recommend using melted chocolate as the "glue" because when it hardens it is quite sturdy and secure. However, in a pinch you could alternatively use chocolate frosting or royal icing.
- If you don't have M&Ms or candy eyes on hand, you can substitute with similar red candies or white candies. An edible marker could be used to draw a pupil on each of your homemade candy eyes.
- Another way to handle the melted chocolate is to scoop it into a disposable piping bag and use kitchen shears to cut a small hole at the end. Then you can squeeze as much chocolate as you need at a time, with less mess.
- If you can't find any of these supplies/ingredients at the grocery store, many craft stores have a specialty foods or cake decorating section that may have a good selection of tools.
