How to Make Pretzel Witch Brooms
Place the candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and melt according to the package instructions.
Unwrap each Reese’s cup and place it upside down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Dip each pretzel into the melted candy so it coats about ¼ of the pretzel.
Gently press the candy-coated end into each peanut butter cup until it stands straight. Place them in the fridge for 5 minutes to allow the melted candy to set. Serve and enjoy!
Top Tip
Before serving, let them sit for a while or refrigerate them for a few minutes to allow the pretzels and Reese’s cups to stick together.
Storage
They can sit at room temperature in a food storage container for 3 or 4 days.
FAQs
Absolutely! You can make them 1 or 2 days in advance. Just make sure you store them in an airtight container to keep the pretzels crunchy.
Yep! Rolos work perfectly if you prefer that flavor. And I’m fairly certain you could get Hershey’s Kisses to work, too.
