Rolo Pecan Squares

Ingredients:
1-15oz Bag Waffle Pretzels (square)
2-12 oz Bags of  Rolos (1 bag has about 55 rolos in it) (if you only want to do 1 cookie sheet full  you can buy 1 bag and 1 to2 individual Rolls of Rolos)
(1 cookie sheet makes approximatly 126 squares- about 63 rolos)

Preheat oven to 275'.  Cover cookie sheet with a sheet of parchment paper, then lay out pretzels side by side until bottom of cookie sheet is covered. 


Unwrap rolos and cut in half. 


Place 1 cut rolo on each pretzel cut side face down. 


When each pretzel has a rolo and oven is preheated back in oven for ONLY 3 minutes just long enough to melt the chocolate. 


Take out and immediatley press one pecan on top of each melted rolo.  If you run out of Peans or prefer some without nuts, use another pretzel on top instead of the pecan.


My hubby took a box of these into work and the guys devored them quickly!
They are a big hit!!

Bacon Candy

Found this Odd Recipe on AOL
Recipe by Kat Kinsman

1 lb Bacon (not thick-cut)
1/4 cup Brown sugar

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Slice bacon into 1/2 inch strips and dredge in brown sugar until thoroughly coated.
Crumple aluminum foil to allow for grease drainage and place it on a baking sheet. Lay out the bacon on this making sure not to overlap pieces.
Bake until crispy. Allow to cool and harden before serving.

According to Kat Kinsman this will be the first thing the guests devour at a party - sounds strange to me but worth a try - Pretty fattening, but most candy is!
