No rocket science here, folks. Good ol’ pretzels for the crunch, Rolo caramel candies for that golden, gooey goodness, and pecan nuts for an extra crunch. But hey, allergic to pecans or don’t have any to hand? No stress, walnut, or almond would do the trick quite nicely.
How To Make Pretzel Turtles
- First things first, preheat your oven to 350��F (175��C).
- Next, align the pretzels on a baking sheet which is lined with parchment paper.
- Place one Rolo candy on each pretzel.
- Bake for about 4-5 minutes, or until the candies start to soften.
- Once out of the oven, immediately press a pecan into the top of the Rolo.
- Let them cool down. Be patient and resist the urge to gobble them right away.
- And voila! Your Pretzel Turtles are ready to be served and savored.
Tips For The Best Results
- Don’t overbake, keep a keen eye.
- Storage Tips:
- Store in a cool, dry place for up to a week or in a fridge for up to two weeks.
- Airtight containers are your turtle’s best friends.
