One of my favorite things about Christmas time is making treats with my kids in the kitchen.Making Christmas cookies can be such a fun tradition to pass down to your children. When I was growing up, my mom and my Grandma always made candy for Christmas along with cookies. Christmas candy is so much fun to make. It can be pretty simple too! I am not much of a baker, but I love making candy! Your kids will love making candy with you too!
Here are some fun Christmas candy ideas for you to make with your kids this holiday season!
Candy Pretzels:
My girls LOVE pretzels. We always make candy treats using pretzels. They store very well and look so pretty packaged up in Christmas bags.
Rolo Pretzel Sandwiches – this is a quick and easy treat that uses Rolos, white chocolate and baby pretzels!
White Chocolate Peppermint Pretzels
Sweet and Salty Chocolate Covered Pretzels
