Rob's Birthday

For Rob's birthday he wanted me to make him Rice & Beans...well his birthday fell on a Friday and the last thing I want to do on a Friday is cook...so we compromised and I cooked for him on Saturday instead.  Since Lina had her ACT test that morning I got up and started cooking right away because after the test she had to go back to school.  So I made some to give her and bring back for Jenna.



Since I was already in the groove of cooking I decided to make a treat for the girls as well...something very simple that I already had the ingredients for.  Pretzel Kiss Bites.

My friend Donna told me about these yummy treats.  They are so simple to make and a fun project to do with the kids...Needless to say the girls (and Rob) loved them!  :) 

And since his birthday fell on the weekend, he feels that it should be his birthday weekend!  Then another celebration on the 16th when we have the family gathering!  

Happy Birthday, Babe!

Pretzel Kiss Bites

• Bag of Pretzels
• Hershey Kisses
• M&M's

Heat the oven to 250 degrees, place pretzels on a cookie sheet and add the Hershey Kisses on top.  Bake for 3 minutes.  Take out of the oven and squish the M&M's on top of the Hershey Kiss while they are still soft.  Refrigerate for 15 minutes!  YUM! 

You can change it up for every holiday since M&M's come in just about every holiday color.  I plan on making these for our family gathering next weekend for the kids using the Easter holiday colored M&M's.  The cousins will love it!

 

Hersehy Kiss can be replaced by a Rollo for a caramel taste.  Experiment with different kinds of candies and let me know what you come up with.
