Valentine’s Day Pretzels
These Valentine’s Day Pretzels are so fun and festive! These tasty treats have Hersheys hugs candies sandwiched between two square pretzels and dipped in colorful candy melts. Of course, they are topped with our favorite heart sprinkles for a fun sweet and salty treat.
We love making dipped pretzels, they are so much fun, and these have a little something extra with the white and milk chocolate Hugs candies between. The salty pretzel taste mixes with the sweet candy for crunchy, salty sweet holiday treats.
Valentine’s Day Pretzels Ingredients:
- 140 Butter Snap Pretzels
- 70 Hugs candies
- 1 (12 oz.) package of red candy melts
- 1 (12 oz.) package of pink candy melts
- Valentines heart sprinkles
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
Step 2: Add a piece of parchment paper to a baking sheet or cookie sheet.
Step 3: Layer 70 butter snap pretzels onto the parchment paper.
Step 4: Place a Hersheys hug onto each pretzel.
Step 5: Place in a 350 degree oven for 2 minutes, just until the candies start to look shiny.
Step 6: Place a 2nd butter snap pretzel onto each Hersheys hug to make a sandwich.
Step 7: Move the candies to the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set.
Step 8: Once the candies have set, place the red candy melts into a microwave-safe bowl, and melt according to package directions, usually 30 second increments.
Step 9: Repeat for the pink candy melts in a separate bowl.
Step 10: Dip each candy into the pink or red melted candy, letting any excess candy fall off, and sprinkle with heart sprinkles as you go.
Step 11: Once each candy has been dipped and sprinkled, place them back into the refrigerator for an hour to set.
Leftover Valentine pretzels can be stored in an airtight container, like a ziploc bag, for up to a week. We love an easy treat, and everyone in our house loves these.

Substitution Ideas:
- You can swap the Hugs candies for Hershey Kisses, of course!
- Any colorful festive sprinkles will work great.
- You can skip the candy melts and melt white chocolate chips or regular chocolate chips to make chocolate dipped pretzels. Let the excess chocolate drip off just like you would with the candy melts.
