On the Fourth Day of Christmas...Pretzel Turtles

My next recipe is truly a no-brainer.   It took less than 15 minutes to prepare and "bake".  It only has 3 ingredients and it's a perfect kid friendly treat to make.  

Pretzel Turtles

Ingredients: 
20 small mini pretzels
20 chocolate covered caramel candies
20 pecan halves

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. 
Arrange pretzels in a single layer on a parchment lined cookie sheet.  Place chocolate covered caramel candy on each pretzel. 
Bake for 4 minutes.  While the candy is warm, press a pecan half onto each candy covered pretzels.  Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.  

These were like little drops of heaven in my mouth.  So yummy!  It kind of tasted like a Take 5 candy bar.  Just to clarify the ingredients, I used the circle pretzels by Rold Gold and Hy-Vee brand chocolate covered caramel candies that were in the candy section.  I felt like this variation needed more pretzel.  The chocolate covered caramel candy was a little big.  If you use the circle pretzels, I would recommend using Rolos for your candy.  I think you would get more of an even amount of pretzel and chocolate in each bite.  Now if you choose to use the bigger chocolate caramels, I would recommend using a mini twisted pretzel or even one of those waffle looking ones.  Any way you make it, this is good and you can't really mess it up.  And it stores nicely in a Ziploc bag.  

What's up for tomorrow?  Peanut  Butter Balls
