  1. Melt the Rolos: Place the tray in the oven for 3-5 minutes. Keep a close watch – you want the Rolos soft enough to press down, but not fully melted.

  1. Press with Pecans: Remove the tray from the oven, and gently press a pecan half onto each Rolo to create a turtle shape. The Rolo should spread just a bit but still hold its shape.
