Chocolate Caramel Pecan Pretzel Bites

Ingredients:
  • 24 small, square grid pretzels
  • 3 packages Rolo candies (8 candies each)
  • 24 Superior Mammoth pecan halves
  • 6 oz. semisweet or white chocolate chips (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place pretzel squares on baking sheet; top each with a Rolo. Bake for 2 minutes. Remove from oven and press a pecan half on top of each one, compressing the Rolo slightly.

Place pan in refrigerator to cool candies, at least 5 minutes and up to 1 day. In a small bowl, microwave chocolate chips to melt, and drizzle with a fork for garnish.

This is one of our favorite Pinterest recipes, it's the perfect combination of sweet and slightly salty.  A great treat for tailgating!
