Marshmallow Pretzel Pops

Marshmallow Pretzel Pops are salty, sweet, and delicious. Wonderful for Valentine’s or any sweet occasion. The way you create these is limited only by your imagination. Have fun trying different colors and toppings. Happy Valentine’s Day-Enjoy!

 

 

These treats can be made a day ahead. We made pink chocolate for Valentine’s Day, but any color can be used. Once dipped in chocolate, marshmallows can also be rolled in chopped nuts, toffee pieces, shredded coconut or sprinkles. Pretzel rods may be used without marshmallow or marshmallow’s on fun colored straws without pretzel rods. Everybody loves these treats!
