Rolo Pretzel Sandwiches and Turtles

 
 

 
 
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
(sprinkles)


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!

    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!

    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!
