Tips:

  • Use a candy thermometer: This will help you ensure that the caramel reaches the correct temperature and prevents it from burning.
  • Don't overcook the caramel: If you cook it for too long, it will become too hard and brittle.
  • Use fresh pecans: This will give the candies the best flavor and texture.
  • Chop the pecans finely: This will help them distribute evenly throughout the candies.
  • Work quickly: The caramel will start to set quickly, so you need to work quickly to form the candies before it hardens.
  • Don't refrigerate the candies: This will make them too hard and brittle. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

These Rolo pecan caramel candies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover Rolos.
