Ingredients
- 35 square pretzel snaps
- 35 Rolo chocolates, unwrapped
- 35 pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and lightly spray a 9″x13″ baking pan with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
- Arrange Pretzels: Place the 35 square pretzel snaps evenly in a single layer within the prepared baking pan.
- Add Chocolates: Position one unwrapped Rolo chocolate on top of each pretzel.
- Bake: Bake the pretzels and Rolo chocolates for 2 minutes in the preheated oven, just enough to soften the chocolates without fully melting them.
- Press Pecans: Remove the pan from the oven and gently press one pecan half into the center of each softened Rolo to create the ‘turtle’ shape.
- Chill: Refrigerate the treats for 10 minutes to allow the chocolates to firm up again before serving.
