These Easter Pretzel Chick Treats are such an easy treat to whip up for Easter. My kiddos have a three day weekend this week. We took some time to make some treats to enjoy. Since the older four are teenagers, they can really polish off some serious food, ha ha. They all love pretzels and chocolate so these Easter Chick Pretzels were perfect to have for snacking. I placed some in snack bags for next weeks lunches when they were not looking, lol. Hopefully the hubby and kids do not find my stash before they head back to school on Tuesday.

I always pick up numerous bags of pretzels while shopping at Aldi. They are a cheap and somewhat healthy snack for all of us to munch on. I just added in some yellow chocolate and some orange Starbursts for the chick beaks. So simple yet so cute.
