Rolo Pretzel Turtles
What you will need
1. Bag of Rolos chocolate covered caramels

Directions for Rolo Pretzel Turtles:
Preheat Oven to 300 degrees. Lay parchment paper over a cookie sheet. Put down mini-pretzels and unwrap and place a Rolo over top of the pretzel. Place in oven for 4 minutes. Take out of the oven and while still ooey gooey warm place your favorite Peanut on top. Cool completely before storing away. If serving warm, make sure you don’t scald your guests palates or tongues. No one likes a trip to the ER during the Holidays!

Happy Holidays from my (small) kitchen to yours!
Yum! That sounds so easy and delicious.
Tom is allergic to pecans, so we won’t be using those.
I can see the girls helping me prepare these. Thank you, Sherri!
Jean, I won’t be using Pecans either…lol. You can use just about anything your creative mind can come up with. My boyfriend isn’t a big pretzel fan so I’ll be using cashews in place of the pretzel.
Enjoy. Your girls seem to love holiday activities and baking projects. Hey, I have an awesome recipe for Peppermint Martini’s that a male co-worker shared with me yesterday. Interested? It’s time for one of your holiday drink recipe vlogs!
Yes, I’m interested! Martinis and Christmas go hand in hand. Thanks, Sherri!
Okay I’ll email you the recipe in a bit. I’m off to run some of those holiday errands.
