from real mom kitchen


•50 pretzels from a bag of waffle type pretzels like Snyder’s of Hanover Butter Snaps or Rold Gold Butter Checkers
•1 (11 oz) bag of Rolos, unwrapped (the is around 50 in a bag)
•50 Halved Pecans or M&Ms
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2.If using pecans, spread the pecan halves on a baking sheet and bake for 4 minutes. Give them a stir and cook them for another 4 minutes.
3.Place pretzels on another baking sheet. Top each pretzel with 1 rolo candy, place it right in the center of each pretzel.
4.Place in oven and bake for 3 minutes. You want the candies to soften but not completely melt.
5.Remove from oven and immediately place a pecan half (or candy) on top of each candy and lightly press. You want to flatten the candy to cover all of the pretzel except to outer outline and secure the candy on top.
6.Allow to cool. Makes 50 turtle candies.
