Turtle Delights

Recipe courtesy of Jane Schrum of Lincolnton, a member of Rutherford EMC.

1 bag of Snyder’s “Snaps” Pretzels (looks like small square window panes)
1 bag Rolo chewy chocolate caramel candies
36 whole pecans

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place 36 pretzels on cookie sheet 1 inch apart. Unwrap 36 Rolo candies and place one on top of each pretzel. Bake for 3 minutes (no longer!) set timer. Remove from oven and immediately place one pecan half on top of each Rolo. Press down slightly on pecan so the Rolo will melt into the pretzel. Cool for 10-15 minutes until candy is set. Store in an airtight container. Hint: 3 ingredients, 3 minutes, 300 degrees.
