mini pretzel twists
24
brown candies (Sixlets, Reese's Pieces or M&M's)

Instructions
Break both curved parts off of 12 of the heart sprinkles creating 24 little red tongues.
Spoon about ½ teaspoon of white chocolate onto a piece of parchment paper.
Dip one mini pretzel twist in white chocolate then remove and allow excess to drip off.
Set over top of the spoonful of white chocolate.
Immediately press one red tongue and 1 brown candy nose onto the bottom edge of the pretzel.
Chill in the refrigerator if using pure chocolate and in the freezer if using Candy Melts until hardened, about 3-4 minutes.
Repeat creating a total of 24 white chocolate dipped pretzels.
Paint on a spot of milk chocolate above and to one side of the candy nose.
Immediately press one candy eye over the chocolate spot.
Attach the other candy eye using a small amount of milk chocolate.
Paint on some tiny freckles next to the candy nose.
Let the chocolate harden completely before packaging them.
