A Holiday Treat for Snacking & Gifting

An easy and fun treat to gift your coworkers, friends, and family.

Every year during the holidays, we would make this sweet and salty snack called bacon & eggs. You need three ingredients and less than an hour to put this treat together, which makes it perfect for last-minute classroom treats or office potlucks.

shop local:

If you have access to a local candy shop, they will typically have M&Ms sorted by color so you can grab the color you need instead of having to sift through a bag of candies from the grocery. When we didn't have access to a candy store, we would filter the yellow and green candies out and call them "bacon and eggs" and "green eggs and ham."


Holiday Treat: Bacon & Eggs

What you need:

  • Pretzel sticks

  • Vanilla almond bark

  • Yellow M&Ms

Directions:

  1. Melt the almond bark in a double boiler (or microwave) until smooth and silky.

  2. While the almond bark is melting, sort the pretzels into piles of 3 over wax paper or foil.

  3. Once the almond bark has melted, spoon a small bit (approx a teaspoon) onto the center of the three pretzels. The almond bark will act as glue to keep the three pretzels together.

  4. Add an M&M to the center to mimic the look of an egg yolk.

  5. Let cool and enjoy.




Xx, Riss
