here is an weasy cookie/candy recipe that a friend of mine made---


"Rolo" pretzel candy/cookie4

"ring" pretzels
rolo candies, removed from wrappers
half pecans

Preheat oven to 250*F

Place parchment paper on cookie sheet.

Place pretzel rings close together on parchment paper.

place one unwrapped Rolo inside each "ring".
when oven is up to temperature, place cookie sheet in oven.
Heat for 5 minutes.
remove and p lace one half pecan on the middle of each "ring"--if the candy is melted enough yo ushould not have to press too hard.
place in cool place (or ice box) until very firm.--Now remove from parchment paper.

quick easy & oh so good.
you can make them with Hershey's kisses, mint chocolates--or instead of pecans you can use candies.
let your imagination be your guide.

Thanks Tamara---
I will say that lst night I used the hershey mint kisses & they worked like a charm, as did the Dove promises. But the Hershhhheys regular kisses seized up and would not melt--
also if you use the Dove or Bilss choc, or any that is larger than the pretzel rings put the pretzel on top of the chocolate and then just pus it down when it is HOT---

The regular Hershey's might have been 'wet'..if chocolate gets too cold, steam or moisture it seizes.
