Ingredients:
  • 1 bag Brach’s Mellow creme Pumpkins
  • 1 bag Hershey Hugs
  • 1 bag Snyder’s Butter Snap Pretzels
Directions:
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Cover with pretzels so they’re all lying down flat.
  • Place an unwrapped Hershey Hug on each pretzel.  Place in the oven for 1 ½ minutes at 350 degrees. (Cupcake Diary Blog says place in oven for 2-3 minutes).  I found that was way too long.  Remove from oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes. (This is important. Be sure to wait the full 20 minutes)
  • Carefully place a pumpkin on top of each Hug.  You won’t need to press down because the weight of the pumpkin will press down the chocolate.
  • Allow to cool.  Then place in a cute candy dish or package up for the kids and grandkids.
*I had a lot of pretzels left over, so I purchased some orange colored Wilton Wafer Melts at Walmart and made more candy.  

Directions Dipped Pretzels:
Melt the wafers in a microwave or in a double boiler on the stove and dip the remaining pretzels in the cream wafer sauce.  Place on the parchment paper that you used for the pumpkin candy and let dry.  

I was able to make two platters of candy for friends and us of course, and six small bags of goodies for the grandkids.  These are really easy and really good... I hope you have time to make some before Halloween. They are so easy and so fun!
