  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 50 pieces 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

These Pecan Rolo Pretzels are the ultimate 3-ingredient holiday treat—sweet, salty, crunchy, and ready in just 15 minutes. A viral favorite on Pinterest and the perfect last-minute dessert or gift.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 50 pretzels (snap or waffle-style)
  • 12 oz package Rolos (about 100 pieces)
  • 50 pecan halves

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange pretzels in a single layer and place one unwrapped Rolo on each.
  3. Bake for 4–7 minutes until Rolos look glossy and softened.
  4. Remove from oven and gently press a pecan half into each softened Rolo.
  5. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to set before serving.

Notes

For a colorful variation, replace pecans with M&Ms. Always check the Rolos at 4 minutes—overbaking causes caramel to melt into puddles.
