turtles for teachers

I think these would make delightful little treats of appreciation for teachers, para-pros and office administrators alike. 

 

Rolos
Mini pretzels (regular or square)
Toasted pecans, peanuts or peanut M&Ms

Preheat oven to 220 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil.  Place
the pretzels on the cookie sheet and top with one Rolo each. Bake for
three minutes. Remove from the oven and press on topping of choice. 
Then slide the foil onto the counter and let the chocolate set up. For
faster set up, you can move the pan with the candy to the freezer, and
chill for about 20 minutes or until firm.

Notes: To toast pecans, spread them out on
a plate and microwave for 30 seconds at a time. Stir the pecans around
with your hand in between cooking times until toasted.

(Thanks Ellen for reminding me about these easy-to-make candies;)
