Cute M&M Bunny Pretzels: Super Easy 3-Ingredient Recipe

You have to make these adorable bunny pretzels as an Easter treat this year. They’re super cute and come together in less than 10 minutes.

These would make a cute Easter bunny dessert for kids, a fun addition to an Easter lunch box or as a nice pop of color on an Easter charcuterie board. Once you try them and see how simple they are, they’ll be on your list to make every year.

I like the make them along side of my recipe for cute Easter carrot M&M pretzels and cheerful Spring flower M&M pretzels.

The secret to these bunnies is M&M’s (I especially like them when made with the cheerful Spring colors). One M&M is the bunny head and then a halved M&M makes the ears.

Let’s make some Easter snacks!

3. Sort M&M’s into pairs of matching colors. Cut one M&M from each pair in half for bunny ears.

4. Put the baking sheet in the oven to warm for 3 minutes. Baking time will vary depending on candy melt brand so watch this step closely. You want the candy melts to soften but not fully melt.

5. Working quickly, press one whole M&M into the softened candy melt and press in two halves as ears. Repeat for each pretzel as quickly as possible before the candy melt cools.

6. Allow pretzels to cool fully before removing from the baking sheet. 

7. Repeat the process until you make the desired number of bunny pretzels. I recommend doing them in the smaller batches so you can place the M&M’s before the candy melts cool.
