It doesn’t get any easier than these Rolo pretzels – only 3 ingredients and 10 minutes for this sweet and salty treat!
An Easy 3 Ingredient Treat!
We’re not joking when we say this candy literally takes MINUTES to make! Only a couple of minutes to assemble, and 3-5 minutes in the oven. That’s it!!
We love to make these tasty little Rolo pretzels for Family Night since we usually have all the ingredients on hand (it only takes 3!). We also love making them for holidays, parties and cookie plates since they’re simple, loved by all and made in minutes.
Because there are so many M&M varieties, we like to change them up for holidays like Easter, Halloween, and Christmas.
WHY WE LOVE IT:
- Just 3 ingredients! This sweet and salty treat is quick and simple, few ingredients and only minutes to make.
- White or milk chocolate. Use your favorite Rolos and M&Ms!
- For the kids. Because this 3 ingredient recipe is so simple, it’s perfect for kids to help!

COOK TIME: 3 minutes

How to Make Rolo Pretzels
- PREP. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Remove the wrapper from the Rolos.

Recipe FAQ
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 5-7 days. Flash freeze on a tray for 30 minutes to an hour, and once hardened, place them in a freezer-safe Ziploc bag for up to 2 months. Thaw before eating.
The rolos fall off the pretzel when you pack them up. They are completely cooled. Any idea why they do that?
So easy for the young kids to help and be a part of making these yummy treats. Who can’t like a treat like this!
Perfect quick recipe for kids to help with. My littles always jump right in. We switch to Christmas M&M’s during the holidays and gift to neighbors. Love the sweet & salty combo!
I use Hershey kisses instead of Rolo
My group of special needs adults had a great time making these as well as eating them. The combination of sweet and salty is yummy.
These are wonderful! Sweet and salty in one bite.
So easy and delicious. I love little finger snacks/desserts and my friend is obsessed with rolos so this was a huge hit.
You really don’t mean UNWRAPPED Rolos do you???
Yes, you unwrap the Rolos before warming up/softening in the oven. 🙂
I usually make these with a Hershey kiss and a peanut butter M&M on top. I really love this version with the Rollo as well.
The most simple cute little treat that your kids will love!
A great simple treat for everyone!! Kids love them and can help make them. Makes a great Christmas neighborhood gift or anytime gift or treat! Easy to make too. 😋
