Pretzel Rolos Pecan Turtles

I got this pretzel turtles recipe from a co-worker’s wife.  These turtle pretzels are simple to make and fun for the kids.  My kids were able to do everything, I just slid the parchment off the hot pan to a cold pan so I didn’t have to worry about them burning themselves.  They enjoyed making and eating them, of course 🙂

Pretzel Turtles Recipe

– Small mini pretzels
– Chocolate covered caramel candies (Rolos)
– Pecan halves

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  2. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Place one chocolate covered caramel candy on each pretzel.
  3. Bake for 4 minutes. While the candy is warm, press a pecan half onto each candy covered pretzel. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

Hot Pretzels

Father’s Day 2003, Aunt Leta said we each had to bring a surprise to the picnic at Downing Park. This was my surprise.

3 – 15 oz. bags Rold Gold pretzels
2 – 1 oz, pkgs, Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing mix
2 – 12 oz, bottles Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping and Topping Oil, buttery flavor
1 tsp, dill weed
1 tsp. cayenne ground red pepper
1 T. fine black pepper (I use 1 tsp.)
2 T. Jalapeño all-purpose seasoning (made by Konriko)

Mix oil and dressing together and pour over pretzels in a large open roaster. Then sprinkle other seasonings and pepper on top and mix well. Heat in oven at 200º for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes. Put on newspaper to cool.
