In the past, I have confessed here that even as a young girl, I enjoyed watching the original Grinch cartoon on TV during the holidays. Plus, my kids like not only watching the original but the updated movie versions once the holidays are upon us.
So, make sense that I would want to make them a fun themed Grinch treat to eat while viewing any versions of The Grinch. While we do still enjoy the Rice Krispie treats that I have made in the past, as well for viewing The Grinch, I recently decided to make a different but still equally easy family-friendly themed Grinch food for us.
What did I come up with?
Well, I had some pretzel rods in my pantry. From there, I placed a quick Amazon order to come up with the Grinchiest of Pretzel treats ever.
See, I used melted green chocolate candy wafers, green candy shred, and little edible candy hearts, too. They look like little Grinch fingers. They didn’t take long to make though and are seriously perfect for all the Grinch fans out there similar to our family.
Plus, these Grinch Pretzels can be made for all Grinch watching no matter which version is being viewed.
So, how about it? Do you want to make Grinch Pretzels for your family this holiday season?
Then, scroll below to get the lowdown on how to indeed create them now.
