Ingredient Notes
Pecan Halves – I like to buy the big bags of Pecans from Costco, and I usually buy a few during the holidays, since I use them a lot. Pretzels – These come in many different shapes and sizes, so use the smaller pretzels or the square ones. Caramels – Individually wrapped caramels, so this is where you’ll be spending most of the time, just removing the wrappers. Chocolate – I went with semi-sweet chocolate chips but use your favorite. Fleur De Sel – This is an optional ingredients, but if you like sweet and salty, you’ll want to add a few flakes of this salt on each pretzel turtle.

Tips
Storing
You can store these pretzel turtles in airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Make sure to keep them away from warm temperatures or the chocolate will start to melt.
Freezing
Layer your turtles in an airtight container with parchment or wax paper in between (this will prevent them from sticking together.) Freeze for up to 2 months, then defrost at room temperature before serving.
