Pretzel Santa Hats

We went caroling for our water buffalo over the weekend and had such a wonderful time.  I’m not sure who was happier – the carolers or the families we visited.  Some knew we were coming by, but others were taken completely by surprise.  It was such a great night!  (If you want to read the story of our water buffalo, you’ll find it here.)

Afterwards, we came back to the house for hot chocolate, sugar cookie bars, and these little pretzel Santas.  They are so easy to make and a perfect snack for spreading some Christmas cheer.

mini pretzel twists
white chocolate almond bark
red sanding sugar
mini marshmallows

Melt the white chocolate almond bark according to the directions on the package.  Dip each mini twist pretzel halfway into the melted white chocolate almond bark, then dip pretzel into the red sanding sugar until only a small amount of the almond bark is showing.  Place on waxed paper.  Cut the mini marshmallows in half.  Use additional melted almond bark to adhere a mini marshmallow half onto the side of each pretzel.
