Cook Time 3 minutes
Total Time 18 minutes
Serving Size 12 pretzel bites (24 eyes)

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Kitchen scissors

Ingredients

  • 12 pretzel thins pretzel crisps
  • 24 Rolo candies unwrapped
  • 24 mini marshmallows cut in half
  • 48 mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F. Arrange pretzel thins in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.
  • Place 2 Rolos side by side on each pretzel.
  • Cut mini marshmallows in half with kitchen scissors. If the marshmallow sticks, rub a little oil on the blades.
  • Press a mini chocolate chip, point down, into the cut side of each marshmallow half.
  • Bake 2 minutes, just until the chocolate starts to look glossy and melty.
  • Working quickly, press a marshmallow half, cut side up, lightly onto each Rolo.
  • Optional: return to the oven for about 20 seconds to help everything set.

Notes

  • Have all the marshmallow eyes prepped before the Rolos go in the oven. You need to work fast.
  • Store in a single layer in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
