Calories: 380kcal
Equipment
- Microwave or stove-top
Ingredients
- 12 Tiny Teddy biscuits
- 12 mini M&M's
- 100 g milk chocolate melted
- 12 treat size Milky Ways
- 24 mini candy canes
- 12 pretzels chopped into small pieces
Instructions
- Lay each of the Tiny Teddies out flat on a tray or chopping board.
- Stick one mini M&M onto each Tiny Teddy with a small amount of melted chocolate to resemble the nose.
- Cut a tiny slit with a knife in the middle of each Milky Way.
- Dip the bottom of each Tiny Teddy into the melted chocolate and then lightly press into the top of the Milky Way (the Tiny Teddy doesn't need to go right in - the melted chocolate will help to keep it in place).
- Spread melted chocolate along a 2cm section of each candy cane (approximately half to two-thirds of the way down) - I like to do this one sleigh at a time so that the chocolate doesn't set too quickly.
- Place the Milky Way onto the melted chocolate and hold in place until set.
- Dip the ends of two tiny pretzel pieces into the melted chocolate and hold onto the top of the Tiny Teddy's ears until they have set.

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
Ingredients:
- Candy Canes - choose mini candy canes for this recipe. Tip: if you can buy unwrapped candy canes, that is the preferred option as some brands can be a little difficult to unwrap without breaking the candy canes.
- Tiny Teddies - made by Arnott's here in Australia. Alternatively you can use any mini teddy bear cookies.
- Milky Ways - choose treat-size or mini Milky Ways or similar rectangular chocolate coated soft nougat bars. Also known as 3 Musketeers bars in some countries.
- Storing - keep candy cane sleighs stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
- Freezing - this recipe is not suitable for freezing.
