Christmas 2008... a recipe

Sunday, December 28, 2008

I finally took the time this evening to go through my Christmas pictures.  One thing I got this year was a sick kids Christmas sandwich.  Sick kids... CHRISTMAS... sick kids again.  Sheesh.  When my kids are sick I always tell myself to be consciously thankful for their health when they get better, and not to take it for granted again.  So while I loved all the get-togethers and celebrations of our Savior's birth, all the festivities left me a little drained this year.  Good thing it's not all about me, right?  

Moving on... Here is a recipe (is it called a recipe if there are only three ingredients?) for cute little turtles.  They remind me of those Take 5 candy bars.  

All you do is melt a rolo candy on a mini pretzel at 350 degrees for 4 minutes, and then top with crushed peanuts.   IMG_0135IMG_0136

oh yummy! i'm going to have to try those! looks like you had a wonderful Christmas! you took some great pics!

Hi Jules: I made them and they were awesome!! Love you and the pics are gorgeous!! Happy New Year and please say hello to Cory for us!

Hey....someone at my dads work made those this year and ohhh, they are so good. I didn't realize the candy was a rolo. I'm excited to try them now! SO easy! Glad you guys had a great christmas!

These are good and you can also top them with a pecan! I've also had them with a Hershey's hug candy instead of the rolo and it was really good. It's the perfect combination of salty and sweet.
