These Rolo Pretzel Turtle Bites are a staple at our house every Christmas.
They are the perfect sweet and salty treat!
They are so simple to make, require very little time, and make a great gift for neighbors.
Ingredients for Rolo Pretzel Turtle Bites:
- Rolos caramel candies
- pecan halves
- pretzel twists
How to Make Rolo Pretzel Turtle Bites:
Start by lining a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper while your oven preheats to 350 degrees F.
Cover your prepared baking sheet with pretzels.
Place a Rolo in the center of each pretzel then bake for 3-4 minutes until the Rolos are soft.
Remove from the oven and gently press a pecan half into each Rolo.
Let them cool until the Rolos firm up again. I usually place the whole pan in the fridge to help speed up the process.
What other things could I use as toppings?
If you don’t love pecans you could add any of your other favorite sweet treats.
You could add:
- M&Ms
- mini Oreos
- Sixlets
- sprinkles
- peanuts
- almonds
- gingersnap crumbles
- coconut
- white chocolate drizzle

How long are Rolo Pretzel Turtle Bites good for?
If you don’t eat them all within the first day of making them, be sure to keep them in an airtight container.
They will last for about 6 days in an airtight container before the pretzel starts to go soft and the caramel becomes really hard.
If this is a treat you need to make a few days in advance, we recommend just leaving them in an airtight container.
Do not freeze or refrigerate them because it makes the caramel hard and the pretzel mushy.
