🐢 Dangerous Turtles 🐢 LOL

I've seen this easy candy recipe for years, and today I put some together.  You take a small pretzel and place a rolo candy on top. Bake at 300 for 4 min. Immediately place a pecan half on top, chill till set.  I just tried one and they are dangerously tasty . I will pack them up shortly for a gift, but maybe try one more, you know just to be sure they are good.  😸

I just keep them in the oven for about 2 minutes.

        I have been making those for the past few years.

They are so easy and everyone loves them.
