  • Bake in the oven for 3 minutes, or until the candy melts soften and begin to melt.
  • Create Flower Shapes: Remove the pretzels from the oven. Working quickly, press the M&M's into the softened candy melts, starting from the center and arranging them to create flower shapes. The candy melts will begin to harden, so work efficiently.

Notes

Before melting the candy melts, arrange your M&M's in flower shapes. This will help you work quickly once the candy melts are softened, as you'll have a limited time to press the M&M's into the melted chocolate before it hardens.
