Double Free Recipe Wednesday! (Pretzel Turtles and Buffalo Wing Dip)

Hello again food lovers!  Today is another DOUBLE Free Recipe Wednesday due to the lack of a free recipe last Wednesday.  Hopefully everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend and didn't get into too much trouble! :-)

Both of today's recipes come from my co-workers.  We had our monthly food day, in celebration of the birthdays for May, a couple weeks ago and both of these dishes were brought and were amazing!  Coincidentally one recipe is a sweet treat and the other is a savory dish so it's a nice combo. The first recipe is called Pretzel Turtle and is a super easy treat to make. Pretzel, chocolate, caramel, and pecan .... how can you go wrong with that?  The second recipe is a Buffalo Wing Dip. This dish may not be for everyone but it's certainly fantastic for Buffalo Wing lovers. There is blue cheese dressing in this recipe but don't worry if you're not a fan of blue cheese because you can barely taste it and it blends well with the other ingredients.  It's all the deliciousness of eating Buffalo Wings without getting your fingers and mouth messy!

Pretzel Turtles
  • 20 Small Pretzel Squares
  • 20 Chocolate Covered Caramel Candies (such as Rolo)
  • 20 Pecan Halves
Arrange pretzels on a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Place one chocolate covered candy on top of each pretzel. Place one pecan half on top of each candy. Bake at 300 degrees for 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and while the chocolate is still warm press down on the pecan to flatten the candy a bit.  Let cool and enjoy!


Buffalo Wing Dip
  • 1 8oz pkg Cream Cheese
  • ½ cup Blue Cheese Dressing
  • ½ cup Sweet Baby Ray’s Hot Sauce
  • 1 stalk Celery, chopped
  • 2 cups shredded Chicken (can, rotisserie or chicken breast)
Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan or crock pot.  Heat through and enjoy.
