love ..

i was reading thru the blogs that i follow the other day and came across this on .. gabe's blog .. i thought that they looked .. 1) pretty fast and easy to make .. and 2) supper yummy 
so i thought why not .. i give it a whirl 
so after i dropped ellie off at school on tuesday morning i ran to reasors to procure the ingredients .. 
you will need the following:

rolos .. i was really looking for the big bag of rolos that are on the halloween candy aisle .. but for some reason my reasors had every other kind of halloween candy except for rolos .. not a big deal i just bought every roll they had by the check out stand .. i was trying to calculate how many rolos would be in one roll and i couldn't .. my brain was not working yet .. so i just bought the whole box ..

pecan halves .. not crushed pecans or pecan pieces .. halves 

pretzels .. and yes they must be this shape .. not the sticks or the twisted kind .. these .. the snaps ..

now for the hard part .. preheat your oven to 250 .. line your cookie sheet with parchment paper and lay out a bunch of the pretzel snaps .. i just threw them onto the cookie sheet .. i was in a hurry ..  and spread them around .. the only person that i know who is just as ocd as me and would be anxious because they are not lined up and perfect is in malaysia .. she can't call .. so i lived on the wild side and had my pretzels snaps all out of order ..

next place 1 rolo on top of each pretzel snap .. don't eat a rolo because then your fingers will be sticky .. 

place the cookie sheet into the oven for 5 minutes .. the rolos wont melt .. i promise ..

while the rolos are in the oven get your pecans ready .. you won't have alot of time when you pull them out of the oven .. when you pull them out smush a pecan on top of each of the rolos .. they will be gooey so make sure you press the pecan down into the rolo 

a little side note .. they are HOT .. don't try to put one into your mouth .. it will burn you .. and yes i am speaking from experience .. 

then stick the whole tray into the frig to cool .. then every time you walk by the frig .. open the door and eat one .. they won't burn your mouth anymore because they have cooled .. after you have eaten half the pan and feel sick .. bag the remaining rolo snaps up and deliver to your most favorite person .. 



enjoy !

Those are sooooo yummy. I would eat the whole pan, though. Ha! :)
