Description

OK. I’m giving you fair warning. Don’t make these if you are on a diet or are living with someone on a diet. It will kill your diet. Oh, I know you have all kinds of will power and stuff…but I’m warning you: once you pop one of these little babies into your mouth, there’s no turning back! I know. I was on a diet. Once.

Ingredients

  • 30 whole Mini Pretzels
  • 30 whole Rolo Candies
  • 30 whole Pecan Halves

Preparation

Preheat oven to 250 degrees (F). Line a baking sheet with foil. Spread pretzels over baking sheet in one even layer. Add one Rolo to each mini pretzel. Bake for 4 minutes.

Remove from oven and immediately add a pecan half to the top of the Rolo, squishing down. Let cool for a few minutes, then transfer baking sheet to freezer to chill for 10 minutes. Remove and store in a sealed container.

Thanks for this recipe, really simple and only 3 ingredients, love it! Made a big batch and sent it to my son’s college home for him and all his roommates.

This recipe sounds great! I’ve been making something similar for years using the pretzels, Hershey’s Kisses and M & M’s on top…also HORRIBLE for a diet! Thanks for the recipe :)

Love them! So easy!! I had my 5-year-olds help with sorting out the unbroken pretzels, unwrapping the Rolos, and counting the pecan halves. Sweet all around!
