Rolo Pretzel Turtle Candy
Description
This recipe for Rolo Pretzel Turtle Candy arranges mini pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silpat mat, each topped with a Rolo sweet. Baking at 350°F for a short 3 minutes softens the Rolos without fully melting them, making them pliable. Immediately after removing from the oven, a pecan half is pressed into each softened candy, creating a classic turtle candy appearance. As the candy cools, it firms up, binding the nut and pretzel together with the chocolate and caramel from the Rolo. The combination results in a crunch from the pretzel, a sweet, chewy caramel-chocolate layer, and the nutty texture from pecans.
This simple, no-mess candy is quick to assemble and bake and makes for a convenient snack or party treat. These candies store well in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
