Create festive Chocolate Hazelnut Santa Sleighs for a delightful holiday treat. These easy-to-make confections are perfect for Christmas celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts
  • 12 mini peanut butter cups
  • 12 pretzel sticks

Instructions

  1. Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  2. Stir in chopped hazelnuts.
  3. Spoon a small amount of chocolate mixture into the bottom of each mini peanut butter cup to act as ‘glue’.
  4. Press one end of a pretzel stick into the chocolate mixture in each peanut butter cup.
  5. Place the peanut butter cups on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
  6. Once firm, use the remaining chocolate mixture to ‘glue’ the pretzel sticks to the sides of the peanut butter cups, forming the sleigh shape.
  7. Chill again until the chocolate is completely set.

Notes

  • You can use any type of chocolate you prefer, such as milk, dark, or white chocolate.
  • Experiment with different nuts like almonds or walnuts if hazelnuts are not available.
  • For a variation, you can use small candy canes instead of pretzel sticks.
