Mint Pretzel S’mores Bites

These easy mint pretzel s'mores bites are such a fun Christmas dessert! A gooey marshmallow is sandwiched between two pretzels and a piece of mint chocolate. To make these mint s'mores bites even more decadent, they are dipped in chocolate and sprinkled with crushed peppermints! Plus, a step-by-step video below!

📝 Ingredients

• 20 pretzels (square or twists)
• 10 square mint chocolates, I used a combo of Dove peppermint and mint
• 5 large marshmallows, cut in half (10 halves all together)
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• crushed peppermint, for sprinkling

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 300 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2Place 10 pretzels on the baking sheet. Place a piece of chocolate on each and top with a marshmallow half.
3. 3Toast for 1-2 minutes in the oven, or until your marshmallow is at your desired level of toasty-ness (I toasted mine for about 1 minute, but I prefer a softer marshmallow).
4. 4Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring after each hit in the microwave.
5. 5Place a small dollop of melted chocolate on top of each marshmallow (about 1/4 tsp amount) and top with remaining pretzels (this chocolate acts as a glue to keep the pretzel s'more together).
6. 6Dip half of each s'more in melted chocolate, and place on parchment paper to cool. (A little messy, but so, so worth it!)
7. 7Sprinkle with crushed peppermint, if desired.
8. 8You can dig in right away, or allow the chocolate to set. :-)
9. 9Enjoy!
10. 10These last about 2-3 days in a sealed bag or plastic container with lid (at room temp or in the fridge--these were great cold! The marshmallow is still soft and the flavor is great!).
