I love turtles. Not the reptile kind. I mean, I don’t have anything against those, I just would never say I love them. Nor would I want one in my house. We have two dogs. And 5 hermit crabs. A few spiders. A snake that lives in my strawberry patch. And of course, the 6 of us.
My kids however have been begging for turtles.
So I made fudge. Turtle fudge. They didn’t find that very funny. Delicious, but not funny.

Nuts aside, that does sound delicious (never been much of a nut person, specifically in fudge).
My goodness you have a full house! No wonder you don’t want a reptile turtle! And if it makes you feel any better, I found it funny that you made turtle fudge when they asked for a reptile turtle
Ha! That’s funny. My kids wouldn’t think I was funny either but I would be cracking myself up. Sometimes that’s all that matters =o) Your fudge does look amazing! I just LOVE fudge. And I love Rolos. So it’s a match made in heaven!
Sooo funny!! I don’t think my kids would appreciate that either:) This fudge has got to be the BEST!!!:) I love rolos!
Sarah, You could easily leave the pecans out, and even add more Rolos. It would lose the “turtle” title, but still be delish!
So…the next time by daughter begs me for a puppy or a sibling I can just make her a cake? AWESOME IDEA! Thank you. And I love this recipe – sending it to bookmarks now!
Aimee, I figured I’d leave the nuts out but double the Rolos? Um, HECK YEAH! I love that candy
Oh now…this is just what I wanted for dessert!
Thanks so much!
I would take your turtle fudge over actual turtles any day.
This looks soooo good! I love anything with chocolate and carmel in it!
I could eat thee for breakfast!
I found it funny! That fudge looks so delicious!
Really excited to see this at the linky party this week. I saw it on your blog earlier this week and bought a bag of Rolos so that I can try it ASAP. Can’t wait. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
Been a while since I had rolos and I have never made fudge, but this sounds delicious! Thank you so much for joining Fat Camp Friday! See you next week!
Yummy! This sounds great! Much better than real turtles:)
