Pretzel Turtles

Ingredients

  • 1 bag Rolo candies
  • 50 mini pretzels
  • 50 pecan halves

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Cover an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the pretzels on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, then set 1 Rolo candy in the middle of each pretzel.
  3. Slide the pan into the heated oven and warm the candies only until the chocolate and caramel are soft, about 4 minutes.
  4. Take the baking sheet out of the oven, then gently press 1 pecan into each softened Rolo candy. Move the baking sheet to the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate is firm.
  5. Store the turtles in an airtight container at room temperature, preferably in one layer, since the chocolate softens slightly as it sits.
