Ingredients
20Rolos
40mini pretzels,divided in half (plus a few more in case of breakage)
20small round red chocolate candies of any kind
40candy eyes
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Unwrap the Rolos and set aside.
Separate half of the pretzels and spread one half on the baking sheet.
With the remaining half of the pretzels, cut them in half, and these will be used for the antlers (you will need some extra because some will break). Set aside.
To the pretzels on the baking sheet, place one unwrapped Rolo on top of each pretzel over the single round part of the pretzel.
Put the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 2 to 3 minutes or until the Rolos have gotten soft and melty.
Remove the baking pan and add the red candy nose to the bottom center of the Rolo, pushing down gently on the Rolo as you add the candy.
Add the antlers by sticking the pretzels onto each side at the top of each Rolo.
Add the edible candy eyes right above the red nose.
Let them cool to solidify and enjoy!
Notes
You will need some extra pretzels for the pretzel antlers because some will break.
Make sure the rest of your ingredients are ready to go as soon as the pan comes out of the oven, as you will need to finish the faces quickly before the Rolo chocolate sets.
While it is hard to be patient, make sure to let these reindeer cool completely before serving them.
