Turtles

Kelly Petkin talked about these delicious treats on her podcast and has a video showing how to make them on the KnitPicks website. I had to try them and not only are they easy-the hardest part is opening all the carmels-but they are as good as she said they were.

• Place pretzels on parchment paper on cookie sheet.
• Open carmels. Cut in half and place one half on each pretzel. (I used Werther chewy carmels.)
• Place in 350 degree oven for 6-7 minutes, until carmels are melted and bubbly just on the edges.
• Remove from oven and place in freezer until brittle-about 10 minutes.
• Melt 1 cup chocolate in microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. (Kelly used milk chocolate-I used left over semi sweet chocolate chips.)
• Put chocolate in zip lock sandwich bag. Cut small corner off bag, and drizzle chocolate on turtles.

Enjoy!
