Ingredients
  

  • 12 mini pretzel twists
  • ½ cup candy green, melts
  • 12 red heart sprinkles edible

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. Melt the green candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl following the package directions. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  3. Dip each pretzel twist into the melted green candy, using a fork to lift it out and letting any excess drip back into the bowl.
  4. Place the dipped pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. While the green candy is still soft, place a red heart sprinkle on one side of each pretzel to represent the Grinch's heart.
  6. Let the pretzels sit at room temperature until the candy coating is fully hardened. To speed this up, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
  7. Once set, transfer the pretzels to an airtight container. They can be stored at room temperature for up to a week.
