Quick Treats with one Local Ingredient

The other day I also got some pecans from KBH farms in Georgia at the Red Hills Online Market.  I decided to make some quick treats with them to bring with us when visit family for Christmas.

Locally Grown Pecans

The Ingredients:  Pretzels, Rollos and Pecans, well the pecans are local!
 OK, so this isn't that local, just one local ingredient, but at least I am supporting a local farm.
It's easy enough for the kids to help.
 You put the unwrapped rollos on top of the pretzels on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.  You cook them at 250 or 350 (depending on the recipe you use) for three minutes.  Then press the pecan halves into the top.
Final product, let them cool.
My favorite candy (and still is) are the turtle candies with pecans, caramel and chocolate.  These are a lot like those.
