Enjoying my week of relaxation this week, I finally got round to doing a job I'd been putting off for a while: putting all six of the G&P Christmas stories into one Omnibus edition for both print and Kindle. It's a handsome volume and a definite money-saver as its price is a fraction of buying the six Christmas books separately. I'm only sorry that I didn't manage to get it done before the Christmas holidays.
Now for the other job I've been putting off for a while - finishing 'Scotch on the Rocks'!
While you wait, one of Mary's simplest recipes. (Actually, I have reason to suspect she appropriated this from
my sister in law!) This recipe is simple enough for even Hamish to
make without a major disaster in the kitchen. Perfect for lovers of
salted caramel.
Ingredients
· a bag
of small salted pretzels (Sainsbury’s do a star shaped one which is lovely for
Christmas!)
· 1
family size bag of Rolos
· 1
small packet pecan halves
Instructions
· Preheat
the oven to Gas mark 4
· Put parchment paper on a baking sheet.
· Lay pretzels down on the parchment paper.
· Place a Rolo on each pretzel (you get around 25 in a bag)
· Bake for 3 minutes watching for them to soften but not melt.
· Take out of the oven and press 1 pecan half into each rolo.
· Let cool completely.
· Share... if you can bare to give any away!

For a more sophisticated flavour, try a bag of dark rolos if
you can find them in the shops!
