Drops of Heaven

Posted under Thoughts by celvidge

Ok, CLEARLY I cannot post this under my “healthy recipes” link. So it has to appear on the main page…. darn it. These incredibly SIMPLE, EASY, and DIVINE little treats are truly heaven on earth. You will not be able to just have one though, so be careful!! You won’t be paying attention and then all of the sudden, “OH MY GOSH!!! THE WHOLE BOWL IS GONE!” Yes, it will be just like that. Along with maybe, “What the heck is the matter with my jeans!? Why won’t they button up anymore?!” LOL, yes I just realized that I used heck and gosh in the same post. Ok, so are you ready for your world to be changed: Here ya go!

Rolo Turtles

- 1 bag of pretzel snaps (the square ones that look like a grid)
- as many rolos as you would like (I usually buy about 10 packages)
- an equal amount of halved pecans

directions: preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Place pretzels on the foiled baking sheet and top with one rolo. Bake for 3 minutes. While baking, quick place pecans on a microwave safe plate. Cook for 30 seconds, stir around with your fingers, cook for another 30 seconds, stir around with your fingers, cook for another 30 seconds… repeat until nuts are toasty. Remove pretzels from oven and immediately press one pecan half onto each rolo. LET COOL for at least a minute or two or you will burn the crap out of your mouth! Once sufficiently cooled, pop one in your mouth and hear angelic voices.
