She raved so much about this recipe that I took my bags to the car, and went back in the store to get the Rolos® and pecan halves. I made a few last night (but I used some pecan pieces I had already opened), and they were very easy to make. She suggested sauteing the pecans in butter before placing them on top of the melted candy (excellent tip). They are good... and addictive - it's that salty/sweet combo that works so well. I'll make the rest to take in to the office for my department Christmas gathering tomorrow. But the next time I make these, I think I'll take Jonathan's suggestion and use the Dove® brand or something with better quality chocolate. I'm sure the majority of people who use Rolos® will think they taste just fine (and they do), but being a Toblerone® fan, I could tell that the Rolos® were the "weakest link".

But, I do love food, so... Try these Rolo/Pretzel thingies with Dove chocolate caramels on the square shaped snap-style pretzels. The chocolate is a little bit better quality (creamier) than Rolos, but that's just one man's opinion. You're on your own with the girdle and bra thing, however. I can offer no opinion on that, and really wouldn't know where to begin either ;-) (And, you got my vote on the Marx Food contest, Jaden, but according to the site statistics, you're ahead by a few hundred noses in that race.) Happy New Year. How emasculated I am to find myself on a blog where the commenters are offering ways to reduce tummy-bulge and increase cup sizes. But, I do love food, so…
