To start, lay a piece of parchment paper out on your counter. And on a plate, lay out the square pretzels.

Top each one with a brown candy melt and place the plate into the microwave. You want the candy melt to melt enough to stick to the pretzel, but not enough to melt all over the place. I started at 15 seconds and did intervals until it was coated.

Remove from the microwave and place each one onto the parchment paper.

If you are using red candy melts (like I did) melt the red candy melts according to package instructions and Transfer the melted red candy melts to a Ziploc bag and cut a small hole in the corner. On the parchment paper, pipe small hearts and allow them to set.

Allow them to sit and set for 5-10 minutes and then these yummy pretzel bites are ready to serve.
