Ingredients
Ingredients
- 24 mini pretzels
- 24 Rolo candies, unwrapped
- 24 pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Arrange Pretzels: Spread the 24 mini pretzels in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced without overlapping for even melting.
- Place Rolo Candies: Place one unwrapped Rolo candy on top of each pretzel. Bake in the preheated oven for 3-5 minutes, just until the chocolate begins to soften but does not melt completely. Watch carefully to prevent over-melting.
- Add Pecans: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately place one pecan half on top of each softened Rolo candy. Gently press the pecan down slightly to spread the caramel and chocolate over the pretzel base.
- Allow to Set: Let the bites cool and set until the chocolate firms back up, about 10-15 minutes, before serving and enjoying.
Notes
- Keep a close eye on the Rolos while baking as they can quickly melt and lose shape.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Allow the bites to cool completely to ensure the chocolate firms up for easier handling.
- This recipe is easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
