US - Metric

Instructions

Fit a frosting bag with a #2 or #3 tip and fill with frosting. Alternatively, fill a resealable plastic bag with frosting and cut of the very tip of the corner of the bag with scissors. This will work as a frosting bag.
Break the pretzel twists in half and further break off pieces to get them to look like antlers. A lot will just break and not work out, but after breaking a few, it gets easier.
Frost the back of the pretzel “antlers” and gently press into the top of the Reese’s cup.
Using the frosting, attach the candy eyeballs using frosting below the pretzel antlers.
Using the frosting, attach the mini red M&M below the edible eyes as a nose.
Continue to press and secure any of the pieces that aren’t sticking until firm. Enjoy :)
