turtle treats

this is a great recipe to make with your kids, super quick and easy.

  • mini muffin pan
  • 16 pretzels
  • single pack of rolo candies - cut horizontally in half
  • 16-32 pieces of whole or half pecans

set your oven on broil and bring rack to lower third.

have your kid set a pretzel in each muffin cup and then have them set a cut ROLO on each pretzel, carmel side up.

place muffin tin under broiler for about a minute, or until the chocolate starts to get shiny.

remove from heat and, since pan is pretty hot, you'll want to be the one to top each candy with 1-2 pieces of pecans. press gently, otherwise you'll lose your chocolate to the muffin tin.

give them a few minutes to cool down then transfer to a plate.
