# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
36 mini pretzel twists (for 12 pops)
02 -
12 lollipop sticks or paper straws
03 -
12 green candy-coated chocolates (like M&Ms)
04 -
1 cup green candy melts (or white chocolate + green food coloring)
05 -
1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for smoother melting)
06 -
Green sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
# Instructions:
01 -
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
02 -
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the green candy melts in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. If needed, stir in coconut oil to thin the consistency.
03 -
Arrange three mini pretzels in a shamrock shape on the parchment paper. Place a lollipop stick in the center, positioning it slightly under the pretzels. Add a green M&M at the center where the pretzels meet.
04 -
Using a spoon or piping bag, drizzle melted green candy over the pretzels to hold them together. Ensure all connection points are covered for a sturdy pop.
05 -
While the candy coating is still wet, sprinkle with green sugar or festive sprinkles for extra decoration.
06 -
Allow the pops to cool at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, or place them in the fridge for 10 minutes until firm.
07 -
Once set, carefully lift the pops off the parchment and serve.
# Notes:
01 -
No Lollipop Sticks? Use paper straws or skip the stick and make bite-sized shamrock pretzel clusters instead.
02 -
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for extra freshness.
03 -
Flavor Variation: Try using white chocolate with a dash of mint extract for a fun twist!
