I shared this recipe with a friend years ago when she told me that she couldn’t come to my annual cookie exchange because she didn’t have time to bake. This Rolo Pretzel Recipe for Turtle Candy can be made in less than 10 minutes, and it’s easy enough for a child to make if you help them with the oven. Her 9 year old daughter proudly made this Rolo Pretzel Recipe and the turtle candy was a hit!
Ingredients
  • Note: You’ll need 1 pretzel, 1 Rolo and 1 Pecan Half for each turtle!
  • Miniature Pretzels – The standard “twist” shape!
  • Rolos Candy
  • Pecan Halves
Instructions
  1. Place pretzels on a cookie sheet.
  2. Top each pretzel with a Rolo.
  3. Bake 4 minutes at 250.
  4. As soon as they come out of the oven, place a pecan half on top of each one.
  5. Cool.
  6. Yield: make as many as you want!

That’s it! You can really make these in less time than it would take to go to the store to pick up cookies!
