Here is an easy and YUMMY recipe for the holidays…the perfect mixture of sweet and savory! You can add these little treats to a cookie tray, place them in a Christmas box with tissue paper as a gift, or have them out in candy dishes for Holiday company! I am showing two ways to make them below.
(My children prefer pretzel sandwiches)
 |
| I bag of Rolo candies, 1 bag of square pretzels, 1 small bag of pecan halves (I purchase my pecans at Marc’s because they are less expensive there) |
 |
| Simply place pretzels on a cookie sheet and unwrap Rolos and place on top |
 |
| Place these in an oven heated to 350. Let the chocolate melt slightly for 5 mins and take out. |
 |
| Place another pretzel on top! (I added sprinkles) |
 |
| To make “turtles”, simply place a pecan halve on top. |
|
| Treats for the children who are coming over tonight! |
|
| Can’t forget the grown-ups! MMMmmmm…. |
Rolo Pretzel Sandwiches/Turtles
1 Bag Rolos
1 Bag square pretzels
and/or
1 Bag pecan halves

Preheat oven to 350. Lay out pretzels on a cookie sheet, place Rolos on top of each pretzel. Place in oven for 5 mins. Take out and gently press pretzels/pecans on top. Decorate with sprinkles if desired. Place in refrigerator on cookie tray for 1 hour to set.
Enjoy!

INGENIOUS!! I was just about to start looking for a super easy (and don't forget quick) treat to have at a get together at my house tonight that my hubby just informed me of. I can't wait to make these…. they will make me look like a pro! Thanks!!!!
Wohoo Stef! And noone ever guesses that they are Rolos..they think they are homemade caramel..shhhhh 😉 They are soo addicting ( I say this while chewing on one…oh boy, I need to stop)

I've made the pretzel rolo yummyness for the last 3 years…my absolute favorite and these are great to gift to Sunday school teachers! (once the cool!)
What a great gift idea Podi!
I was at a party last night and the hostess made these. They were awesome!
Iana..they are sooo good, glad you liked them!
Those look amazing! Sweet, salty and easy!
How far in advance could I make these for Christmas? Thank you so much!
Hi Tara! You can make most Christmas cookies up to a month in advance and freeze..including these little delights! Love the Christmas Ziplocs that you can write on… I would keep these for up to a week unfrozen..just because the pretzels may stale/soften. Enjoy!
I just made these!! you have now become my favorite foodie blog!! 🙂 i made them with rolos, reese mini cups, and hershey kisses!! must say once again they are delish!!
Merry Christmas
Wendi, that is wonderful! LOVE your creativity…WOHOO!!!!! Merry Christmas!
This is delicious! Love the melting chocolates!
The chocolates that melted are so beautiful and so delicious. I am drooling right now.
Top a pretzel with a hershey's kiss and melt in the oven. Before kiss cools, place an M&M on top-especially festive for the holidays if using red and green m&m's!
Yes, I have seen them that way too! SO pretty!! I will have to do them next Christmas and post more varieties! Thank you!
