The Best Kid "Cookies"...





Of any recipe I have for "cookie" this is by far the easiest and best for kids to be able to help out.

1 large pkg Rolos
1 Bag of Pretzels (I prefer Snyder)
1 bag halved pecans

Preheat oven to 350'

I put Gennovah in charge of unwrapping the Rolos which takes the longest in making these tasty treats. For every five she unwrapped and counted she was able to eat one. She couldn't unwrap them as fast as me so no chance of her getting a belly ache from too much sugar! Then we laid out our pretzels on a baking sheet. (You don't have to use criss-cross style the other kid works jsut as well.) After you do that put a Rolo on top of each and place in oven for 3-4 minutes. Make sure you have seperated your pecan halves so you can press them in once the Rolos come out of the oven. Press one pecan half into each Rolo and cool. (I put them on my garage shelf because is was freezing out the day we made them.) Wah-lah you have a tasty treat that is super kid friendly to make. They do most of the work and it is really fun!

We did these yesterday too, we left off the pecans cause we aren't big nut fans. The kids loved them. You can also buy the Candy Can flavored kisses and try the same thing those are yummy too!
