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!
Ingredients
PREP TIME: 5 minutes
COOK TIME: 3 minutes
- 1 bag Pretzel Snaps (the square pretzels) – pretzel twists can also work
- 1 bag Rolos– or unwrapped Hershey Kisses or Hugs

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.
- ASSEMBLE. Place pretzel snaps on your cookie sheet in a single layer. Place the unwrapped Rolo candies on the top of each pretzel.
- BAKE. Bake for 3-5 minutes until soft and still in shape. Do not let it melt.
- Take the tray out of the oven. While the Rolos are still soft and warm, place M&Ms on top. Press down gently and let set.

I love the combination of pretzels & rolos! The salty & sweet is amazing together! We make these & stick them on goodie plates for the holidays!
Ive been making these for years and theyre always a huge hit! I use peanut m&ms instead of regular ones and I cant help but snack on them the whole time im making them
LOL..I know what you mean & that’s a great idea! Thank you!
Love this fast and easy recipe Kristyn, and today I’m making them with peanut butter cups and peanut butter M&Ms!! Should be yum!!
…follow up – did not work with PB cups!! I guess the middle wasn’t good for melting. OH well, it was a good thought. Back to Rolos!!!
Bummer! Thanks for sharing!
How far in advance can you make these without getting stale?
You could make them the day before or maybe even a couple days, if left in an air-tight container. Hope that help and hope you like them!
My mom made these at Christmas and on half the batch, she used a cashew piece instead of the m&m! Yum 🙂
Smart!! Cashews would taste great. 🙂
fun for Christmas with red and green m&ms
These were a fun, easy, no big mess in the kitchen, activity for me and the kids. These turned out so festive with holiday m&m’s!
I LOVE rolo bites!!
