Salted Turtle Bites Recipe

Shell-icious Start

Let's get this party started! Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a small baking dish. Don't forget the all-important greasing step, or you'll be scraping turtle bits off your dish for days.

Get Your Dough Together

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. No turtles yet! We're not quite ready for that level of excitement. Mix it up until it's combined and set aside.

Butter up That Shell

Add butter, grated cheese, and water to the bowl. Mix until a soft dough forms. Now we're getting somewhere! This dough is going to be the perfect vehicle for our turtle meat.

Turtle-ly Awesome Addition

Roughly chop up turtle meat and add it to the dough mixture. This is where the magic happens. The turtle meat adds a chewy, savory flavor that will make your taste buds do the happy dance.

Roll it Like a Turtle Pancake

Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut into bite-sized rounds. The rounds should be just big enough to hold a delicious chunk of turtle meat. This is where you can get creative with the shapes if you're feeling fancy.

Ready to Turtle-It-Up

Place each round into the baking dish and bake for 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them! You don't want to overcook these little guys and end up with a burnt shell and dry turtle meat.

Salt of the Sea

Remove the baked turtle bites from the oven and sprinkle them with a dash of sea salt. The salt will enhance the flavors of the pastry and the turtle meat, making this a truly delicious snack.

The Origin Story of Salted Turtle Bites

Legend has it that the Salted Turtle Bites recipe was created by a group of mischievous turtles who wanted to get revenge on humans for stealing their eggs. They spent months perfecting the recipe, experimenting with different flavors and techniques until they came up with the ultimate turtle-yumminess that is Salted Turtle Bites.

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips

In a large bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
