Santa Hat Pretzel Cupcake




Santa Hat Pretzels
 I first saw these cute pretzels on Pinterest and I knew I would have to make them. I think they are even cuter on top of a cupcake and in a bag of M&M pretzel bites.

 I wanted to make cupcakes for Maddy's Halloween party at school but with restrictions they had to be store bought.  BUMMER!  But that's not going to stop me. We have a meeting tonight to plan the ward Christmas party.  So guess what they are getting as a treat.
