How to Make Pretzel Turtles

How to Make Pretzel Turtles
As a kid growing up, Christmas was time where my Mom make all the candy we had for Christmas; divinity, hard tack, peanut brittle, fudge, etc.  I made them for my family only I raised picky kids, so they would not eat what I made.  So I stopped making them, until I came upon these.  These and the Chocolate/Carmel Covered Pretzel Rods (that’s a different Instructable) are the 2 things I make, that anyone will eat.  Here we are at the Christmas season and I am making them again.  They are so easy, even a candy making neophyte can have success and gain acclaim from those so enjoy these tasty little wonders.  Enjoy

I have had them both ways and I think they taste better with white chocolate on the pretzel. You should try it out sometime.
