Green Eggs and Ham Pretzel Snacks

Makes 25 

Ingredients

• 25 white candy melts
• 25 Snaps Pretzels shaped like a square waffle
• 25 Green M&Ms

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Add pretzels in rows on a parchment lined baking sheet.
• Set a white candy melt on top of each pretzel.
• Bake for 1-2 minutes until softened but not runny and melted.
• Remove from oven and while the chocolate is still soft, press a green M&M (be sure the M logo is face down so you do not see it) into the center of each candy melt.
• Allow to set and cool completely before serving or wrapping up your treats.

Start with 3 ingredients: pretzel snaps, white candy melts, and green M&Ms. 

Separate everything out in the bowl so you (and your kiddos) can assemble your treats easily. 

Add pretzels in rows on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Set a white candy melt on top of each pretzel.

My cuties were always so eager to eat their treats and liked to watch it bake in the oven!

Bake at 325 degrees for 1-2 minutes until softened but not runny and melted. 

Remove from oven and while the chocolate is still soft, press a green M&M

(be sure the M logo is face down so you do not see it) into the center of each candy melt. 

Allow to set and cool completely before serving or wrapping up your treats for serving at parties or gifting to friends!

These bite size treats are also great for classroom parties and library story times. 

My girl is now 11 but when we first made this recipe and took these photos she was just a little thing! So sweet!

Sweet Ava loved her story time and fun treat!

It’s Dr. Seuss Week and in honor of our favorite children’s book author I am sharing this adorable throwback recipe.

This easy pudding treat is shaped like a colorful green egg inspired by Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss.

Real green eggs and ham lunch with a story for my littles years ago!

We love this book and the moral of the story which is don’t make up your mind about something without trying it.

My little foodies have always been great with this!

Green Eggs Pudding

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

• 3 oz box instant pudding mix I used pistachio
• 2 cups milk
• 4 vanilla wafer cookies
• colored sprinkles
• green food coloring optional

Instructions

• Add pudding mix and 2 cups cold milk to a large mixing bowl.
• Whisk well until combined. If you are using vanilla or a light color pudding you need to add food coloring now to make it green or just use pistachio flavor like I did!
• Place the bowl of pudding the fridge 5 minutes to set.
• When ready to serve, scoop about 1/2 cup onto a small plate, spreading it in a circle shape to make the "egg".
• Top with a vanilla wafer in the center of each plate of pudding as the "yolk".
• Add sprinkles all over and serve this treat to your hungry kiddos while you read them "Green Eggs and Ham".

I use 3oz pistachio instant pudding mix for this recipe.

Or you can use vanilla or another light colored flavor and add green food coloring too.

Make pudding according to package then add 1/2 cup to a small plate, spreading into a circle shape for the “egg”.

Top with a vanilla wafer in the center as the “yolk” and add sprinkles all over. 

This recipe is enough to make 4 plates. Serve and enjoy!
