These quick, easy and delicious Rolo Pretzel Turtle Cookies are the perfect last minute gift.
Three ingredients: pretzels, Rolos, pecan halves:
We made over 100 of these in less than a half an hour for five amazing neighbors…
1. preheat oven to 250 degrees and unwrap the Rolos (you can only eat one)
2. spread out the pretzels on a cookie sheet and add one Rolo to each pretzel:
3. bake at 250 just until chocolate gets soft (less than 5 minutes) and press pecan half into melted Rolo. Let cool.
4. share on a fun plate (these awesome silver trays are only $3.74!):
5. to give away!
These are seriously good.

Baked them at what temp?
250 degrees
I’ve never made these before but I’m planning on making them this week to give my Mom for Christmas. Hope they turn our great!
Turn out great…oops
We’ve made them for a few years now and they are so easy! I love that each child can help in some way. This year we changed it up a bit and used the red & white hershey’s kisses instead of rolos and topped with a green M&M after removing from the oven. Totally different taste, but so good! Yum!
Wow! This look yummy and easy! Thanks for the idea and for hosting. I posted Homemade Hot Chocolate for the Holidays. This recipe is healthier and much cheaper than conventional brands! Enjoy!
I had these at a party and they are wonderful!
These look FABULOUS! I am technically done with all my shopping and gift making, but these look too good NOT to make!
This week I’m sharing some of our favorite Christmas books.
I cannot wait to try this recipe. Thanks for hosting this wonderful party! I would love it if you would link this super awesome post to our What’s It Wednesday linky party.

Those look pretty dang delicious! Yum!
“Merry Christmas!” I am so excited to be sharing my Pretty Paper Christmas Trees Decor and my Cedar Xmas Garland. Both were very easy to make and didn’t cost much of the green stuff. Plus, they are pretty cute, too. Thanks for hosting another party and hope you have a great holiday!
Oh my! did you realize that cute little tray is only $3.74 right now?!!!!
I LOVE these treats, by the way!
Merry Christmas!
We made a few variations of these last week, too. So yummy: Kids in the Kitchen
They were easy to make and quick to eat and I was super excited to find candies that are safe for my food allergic child.
And here’s a variation:
Put 3-4 chocolate chips inside the pretzel round – melt
Top w/a green or red M&M!
Another twist on these is to use peppermint kisses instead of Rolos and press another pretzel on top. (works best with waffle pretzels.) They are SOOOOO good. They can also be partially dipped in chocolate — or not!
Next time heat the Rolos in the oven first. Then take them out and press the pretzel on them and top with a pecan half. I think they come out prettier that way and they always stay together this way as the caramel really adheres to the pretzel.
What an easy gift to make, but I’m afraid I would never be able to stop with sampling just one. Would 3 be exceptible, or 4…or… Anyhow, thanks for sharing and for the great link party every week!
Wow! Those look divine!
I just made these and they are awesome. I used mini pretzels and cut the rolos in half, carmel side up.
These look soooo good!! I’m going to make them! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
that is exactly what we made for our neighbors too!
Yum!! I keep seeing these around but still haven’t made them. Of course, I might have trouble actually giving them away – heh,heh.
I love this idea!! And thank you so much for the link to the beautiful silver tray!!! The price was awesome and I have now purchased gifts for the adults on one side of our family for next year and I’m including an adorable bird ornament that says “Let Heaven and Nature Sing”, from Dayspring as well. Perfect gifts at a great price, thank you again!!!
Do the pretzels go stale very quickly? I’m thinking of putting them on a cookie platter for teachers.
