Pretzel, Rolo, Pecan Bites!

Well, we didn't get blasted with snow.  Thanks for nothing, Juno!!

Even so, in preparation for the storm, I wanted to make sure I had plenty of snacks on hand.  So, I made one of my favorite treats.  It's salty, it's sweet, and it's nutritious!  Okay, maybe not nutritious, but they are topped with pecans...and those are good for you.  Right??  ;)

This recipe is an adaptation from one given to me by a friend.  She uses Hershey's kisses and M&M's with the pretzels.  Certainly a delicious option, but I love caramel and nuts!  You can really mix it up too...use kisses and marshmallows,  Rolos and your favorite nut...the possibilities are endless.

I would also recommend this to any mom!  Kids would love making these with you!  It really couldn't be easier and the cleanup is a breeze.

Pretzel, Rolo, Pecan Bites!

Ingredients:

1 Bag Pretzel Snaps
1 Bag Mini Rolos (or two bags)
1 Bag Whole Pecans

Directions:

Super simple!  Heat your oven to 200 degrees.  Lay your pretzels in a single layer on a cookie sheet.  Place a Rolo on each pretzel.  Pop in the oven for 4 minutes.  They should be glistening, but still have their shape.  Remove them from the oven and press a pecan into each Rolo.  

You'll need to do this rather quickly.  Pop the tray in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.  Store in an airtight container.

Enjoy!
