Lol! Omgosh I laugh because I did that the first time too. I had to go buy more Rolos.

Sooo, maybe you should throw the rest of the ingredients away before you're tempted to take your first hit again....

Hi Laura,

I've seen this recipe float around a lot on the the food blogs but yours has by far the best write-up of what they (potentially) could be.

You see... I started out to make these. I got all the ingredients. It had been YEARS since I had Rolos.

Needlessly to say, I got as far as snacking on the rolos before I got to the turtles... so at least you can say you made the recipe!

Oops, I did it again! Yup, brought a big batch out...

Oops, I did it again! Yup, brought a big batch out of the oven and have already eaten 8 of them. They're supposed to be a birthday gift for a guy at Church so hopefully I can keep my hands off of them until they're out of the house b/c I do NOT want to make (and eat) another batch.

That was so fun to hear! Thank-you. Laura

I made 15 of them for my family yesterday. One of my sisters is already obsessed. She's rang me twice to ask me whether I can make them again.
I took some into work and in two days I've had so many more requests for them. Wow these really are addictive! Amazing. Thank you so much, I've never been so popular!

Thank-you! I had no idea someone still looked at t...

These are SOOOOO yummmy!I stumbled in here while looking for pretzel squares with Hershey Kisses and M/M’s for a friend in Italy…SO glad she asked for a recipe otherwise I wouldn’t have seen your photos and recipes…yum.(I found you thru a link on another gals blog)
Wouldn't it be nice if we could buy the kisses without the paper wrapper-oh never mind- then we'd be tempted to make more of them! Chocolate is good for you tho! It comes from cocoa BEANS, beans are veggie so it's ok! Thank you for sharing! I sent a FB request too if that’s ok.

Oh, but the toppings are endless. :)

Dammit. It never occurred to me that there were other options beside the pecans, or that I could use something besides rolos. I thought I was safe because rolos are so hard to find sometimes. Hershey's kisses are in. my. refrigerator. now. Damn. Oooh, pistachios....

2009-06-12T15:18:06.074-07:00

I love you, but I hate you. I made these today using pecans, almond M&Ms and dry roasted peanuts. I meant to eat NONE & bring them to a family gathering, but I decided to try one. I've now eaten half the tray and figure I'm either going to have to make more or just not bring them to the gathering b/c I the rest of those babies are ALL MINE. I guess you warned me, but I thought I had better willpower.

2009-06-08T08:51:20.055-07:00

Thanks for the post - it reminded me all about these great treats! I made them over the weekend with Hershey Kisses and M&Ms. Yum.

Love these! I will have to try them!

Thank heavens I can't find Rolos in Nantes! Whew! I love this post and I would go nuts for these candies, too, as that Rolo combo of chocolate and caramel (am I right?) is my absolute favorite!

I made these a few years ago for Christmas using chocolate kisses with red and green peanut m&m's...so addicting!! I love that they're so easy to make but have that addicting sweet/salty combo. Great post!

This is WAY too cool. I've already added it to my Christmas candy list for next Christmas!! But.....of course....I HAVE to try them out before then, right? I haven't even tried these and I KNOW they are going to be way too good. I laughed so hard about you having to up your pants size...what a great title for this post.

That was very smart of you.

2009-05-15T05:56:00.000-07:00

Haha... great title! So you'll need Rolos for the turtles, and like twice as many rolos to eat alone? :)

Note to self - do not make these dastardly little sweet chewy chocolaty crunchy salty nutty monstrosities while alone!
