How to Make Pot of Gold Treats
- Use a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and lay down pretzels.
- Add 1 rolo candy in the corner of each one and put in oven at 250 degrees for 2-3 minutes, just enough so that the chocolate adheres to the pretzel.
- Take out and immediately add edible glitter to top of rolo and put 1 rainbow airhead leaning up against the rolo.
- Edible pots of gold you have, and super delicious too. Who doesn’t love a salty and sweet dessert?

St. Patrick’s Day Treats
Equipment
- 1 baking sheet
Ingredients
- 30 pretzels, square shape is best
- 30 rolos
- 10 air heads, rainbow colored
Instructions
- Lay pretzels on baking sheet with 1 rolo on top of each one.
- Preheat oven to 350 and set inside for just 1 minutes so the outside melts just a bit so you can cut the air head piece that has been cut into thirds over the top and have the sides stick.
- Allow to cool so they stick, enjoy
- * Or for no bake just set rolo on top of each one and fill the top with gold sprinkles. Slice rainbow air heads candies into 1" pieces and set one in front of each chocolate caramel candy.
