Can’t afford designer chocolates? (And who can at this time of year?) No time for time-consuming candy-making extravaganzas? Then, here’s a deal for you. THREE ingredients. Less than 30 minutes. No mixing. And everyone loves these bite-sized gooey chocolate treats with just the right crunch.
Poor Man’s Millionaires
Bag of mini-pretzels (knots)
Bag of Rolo candies
Pecan halves (one per treat)
Line cookie sheet w/ waxed paper. Spread pretzels on cookie sheet (not touching). Unwrap Rolo candies. Place one atop each pretzel. Bake at 250 degrees for 4 minutes (only until candy is slightly soft). Removed and press pecan half into top of each candy smooshing it down a bit. Let cool completely before removing from waxed paper. I sometimes put them in the freezer for a few minutes to speed the cooling.
Store in airtight container. That's it! Hint: Plan ahead and get enough stuff for two batches because these disappear fast.
You might want to leave a plate for poor Santa. He'll be grateful, I'm sure.
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Peace and Joy to all . . .

Oooooh! These ingredients are going on the shopping list...AND I'm swiping it for my Three Ingredient Thursdays! (With proper citation of source, of course!)
I'm certainly swiping this recipe. I can't pass up a chance to look like a gourmet cook using only 3 ingredients and 30 minutes prep time.
Looking forward to Chasing Lilacs, which as I threatened, is now pre-ordered from Amazon.

Ann, I hope you and your guests enjoy the recipe! And I'm so excited that you've pre-ordered Chasing Lilacs, which I hope you enjoy, too.
Merry Christmas!
