Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 oz Pretzels *mini twists
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 sticks butter
- 12 oz chocolate chips *semi sweet or dark chocolate
- sea salt
Instructions
- Line a big cookie sheet or jelly roll pan with tin foil. Spread pretzels out across pan evenly. Try to arrange them so they lay flat and are not on top of each other.
- In a saucepan, melt together brown sugar and butter. Use low-medium heat only otherwise you run the risk of burning the caramel.
- Bring the mixture to a rapid boil stirring frequently. Stir until mixture starts to stick to the pan and turns into a thick caramel mixture (about 7 minutes).
- Pour caramel evenly over pretzels and place into a preheated oven (350) for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over caramel.
- Place back into oven for an additional 1 minute.
- Using a spatula, spread chocolate over caramel creating an even chocolate layer.
- Sprinkle sea salt on top and allow to cool on counter for about 5 minutes.
- Move pan to freeze for two hours. Once frozen, break into small chunks and store in an airtight bag in freezer.
Notes
Tip: I ended up using 1 1/2 batches of caramel to coat the pretzels but 2 batches would have been perfect (2 cups brown sugar, 4 sticks butter)
