It’s that time of year again!
The holidays are just around the corner.
In my house that means baking and making lots of holiday goodies for family and friends.
I defiantly have my go-to recipes that work really well for gift giving.
This one for pretzel rods is one I make for almost every holiday.
It’s so simple, all you have to do is change the decorations for a different holiday, season, birthday, or anytime you want a delicious sweet and salty treat.
These yummy holiday pretzel rods only have four ingredients.
That’s all it takes to make these wonderful treats.
If you have been on this blog before you know there are already a few pretzel rod recipes up.
A friend asked me why there was not a pretzel rod recipe for Christmas. Huh? I forgot to add one!
So, here it is, finally!
As you can see in the photos these have the Christmas sprinkles and nonpareils and there are also some for Hanukkah.
I found “Star of David” sprinkles online and really nice blue sprinkles.
You can find all different kinds of sprinkles and edible decorations at Michael’s, Target and Walmart.
However, you can always find them online such as Amazon.
One more thing…these yummy treats are so nice to give out as edible gifts and so much fun making with the kids and grandkids.
Happy holidays to you all!
