We’re getting close to the holidays when things move at the speed of lightning. And also the time that treats are made and delivered. Or just made and eaten. Ahem. I’m always looking for simple things to make for family and friends. These Turtle Pretzels only have 3 ingredients and are the perfect salty/sweet/crunchy combo.
Yes they have been around for a million years and you might have already tried them. I found the recipe in an old cookbook and thought they’d be amazing. I don’t love chocolate (vanilla and caramel all the way) but I do love Take 5 bars and that’s what this recipe reminds me of. It’s got chocolate, crunch and nuts.
Just like this they would taste good. But add one more ingredient and they are that much better. Yum!
- 10 oz Mini Pretzels
- 8 oz Unwrapped Rolos
- 8 oz Pecan Halves
-
Preheat the oven to 350.
-
Put parchment paper on a baking sheet.
-
Lay pretzels down on the parchment paper.
-
Place a Rolo on each pretzel.
-
Bake for 3-5 minutes watching for them to soften but not melt.
-
Take out of the oven and add 1 pecan half per pretzel.
-
Let cool completely.
I dare you to try and eat just one!

Thanks for posting these! They look easy and yummy, 2 of my favorite things! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
At Christmas I use red and green M and Ms instead of nuts. Halloween: Candy corn;’ July 4: red and blue M and Ms. You get the idea.mand I agree that the windowpane square pretzels,are best to use.
I’m like these other people. I have a bad left hip, a bad right knee, fibromyalgia and 3 herniated disks in my back. I can only stand for a few minutes at a time. Some really good, short recipes would be great for dinner. Thanks…you’re doing a great job.
Love to see short, easy recipes like this since I cannot stand long because of lots of back problems.
I need your easy and fast cook book. I have a bad back and cannot stand for long periods of time. This Pretzel rec. sounds great. going to try it as soon as i CAN GET THROUGH THE SNOW TO THE STORE..
I love all of these recipes. They are great and simple. Thanks and also affordable
I make them with milk duds, (i have done both) a little different but really good
What is the one other ingredient you would add to make them perfect?
I really need a cookbook with fast receipts in it I am a little bit disable and can’t stand for very long so can’t be doing things that takes hours to finish
Our church FBC of Boaz is starting a Cowboy Church and we have snacks every Tuesday night. I always carry something finger sweet this Turtle Pretzels will be mine for this Tuesday night . Thanks so much. I would love to have several more recipes if possible.
Thank You,

These are yummy. I have made them before. If you use the square “waffle” pretzels, they are a lot less messy. Use the butter flavored ones for an even richer flavor. (If you can imagine that!) :-)
This sounds like a way to make them even MORE amazing! Have got to try them!!! Thanks!
These look delicious . Going to try these.
