Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Square pretzel snaps or mini pretzel twists
- 24 Hershey’s Kisses (milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or Hugs)
- 24 M&M’s candies (standard or peanut)
- Optional: Sprinkles for extra flair
Instructions
- Step 1: Preparation
Start by unwrapping all the Hershey’s Kisses. This is the most time-consuming part, so get it out of the way first. Lay a piece of parchment paper on your work surface or directly into the air fryer basket. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on the parchment paper, making sure they do not overlap. Place one unwrapped Hershey’s Kiss in the center of each pretzel. - Step 2: Cooking
Slide the basket into the air fryer. Set the temperature to 300°F (150°C). Air fry the pretzels for 1 to 2 minutes. You are not looking to melt the chocolate completely; you just want the Kisses to look shiny and feel soft to the touch. Check them at the one-minute mark to ensure the chocolate doesn’t overheat or seize. - Step 3: Plating
Carefully remove the basket from the air fryer. Immediately press an M&M candy into the center of each softened chocolate Kiss. Press down firmly enough to spread the chocolate toward the edges of the pretzel but not so hard that it overflows. Let the treats cool completely at room temperature until the chocolate hardens. To speed this up, place the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving.
