Mmmm...found these while I was looking for quick dessert recipes to make.
Andes Haystacks
1 sleeve Fiber One cereal
1 10 oz package Andes Mint crushed candy
Melt candy in microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until liquefied. Stir in cereal. Drop by teaspoon or tablespoon onto cookie sheet covered with wax paper. Refrigerate until set. Store in fridge or freezer
Depending on how big you make them, they come out to be 1-2 points each. I believe the total recipe has 42.5 points, and I made about 35 decent sized ones. They taste a lot like Girl Scout Thin Mints.
Poor Man's Turtles
1 (1.7 oz.) Package Rolo Candy
8 Mini Pretzels
8 Pecan Halves
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.Place pretzels on a foil lined cookie sheet.Place 1 Rolo on top of each pretzel.Bake for approx. 4 minutes or until chocolate gets shiny.Remove from oven and gently press 1 pecan half into each treat.Cool for 10 minutes, then place sheet in the fridge to set.
Serves: 8 WWP: 1
7/14: I should make one small change to this recipe. I often take 8 mini pretzels, put them on a piece of parchment paper, put one rolo on top of each of them and then microwave for 45 seconds. I take them out and press 1 pecan half into each treat. Then I refrigerate them for 20 minutes or so. Much quicker than the baking method.

OMGosh...these sound easy and good. Maybe you should try them out on me and Henry???
Bet they'd go quick in a Christmas cookie tray and sounds easy enough to make.
