I've had this for a million years (or so), and I'm almost certain I got it from BBC. It's a pretty well-known recipe, though. These are just delicious. It gets harder and harder to find Rolos, though! I did finally manage to find the small rolls at Walgreens, thankfully. Hubby took them to work the next days, and there weren't any leftovers. That means the boys and I will be making more tomorrow. Woo hoo! The very best part of them (other than the chocolate, hehehe) is that the kids can help make them. They had a blast, and they thought they were really big stuff after making candy almost all by themselves. :-)
ROLO PECAN CARAMEL CANDIES
(OP?)
1 package Mini Pretzels
1 (13-oz.) package Rolo Candies (there are exactly 63 pieces in the bag)
1 package Pecan Halves (you'll need 63 halves and there will be about 25 to 30 left)
Preheat oven to 250 Degrees. Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place pretzels individually to form one layer only. Place one Rolo Candy on top of each pretzel.
Bake at 250 degrees for 4 minutes or until the candies are soft. Immediately remove from the oven and quickly place a pecan half on top of a candy and push down to squish the chocolate into the pretzel and flatten out.
Cool for 15 to 20 minutes, then place in refrigerator (uncovered) until the chocolate candy is firm, usually 10 to 20 minutes. No harm is done if these are left in the refrigerator longer. Transfer to plate or container.
Makes 63 candies, approximately 1 ¼ pounds (M&Ms can also be used in place of pecans. Hershey’s Kisses, Hugs, etc. can be used in place of Rolos.)
