Ingredients
Scale
For the Pretzels:
- 24 mini pretzel twists (or regular-sized, broken in half)
- 1 cup caramel bits or caramel squares
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional for extra flavor)
For the Chocolate Coating:
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (or dark chocolate for a richer taste)
- 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil (helps the chocolate stay smooth and glossy)
Instructions
Prepare the Caramel Coating
- Melt the Caramel: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel bits (or chopped squares) and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted. Add a pinch of salt if you like that extra salty kick.
- Dip the Pretzels: Dip each pretzel twist into the melted caramel, ensuring it’s well-coated. Allow any excess to drip off, then place the pretzel on a parchment-lined tray. Repeat with the remaining pretzels.
Chocolate Coating
- Melt the Chocolate: In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.
- Drizzle the Chocolate: Using a spoon or a piping bag, drizzle the melted chocolate over each caramel-coated pretzel. You can be as generous or as artistic as you like with the drizzle!
- Chill: Place the tray of pretzels in the fridge to set for about 20 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens and the caramel firms up.
