Caramel Chocolate Pretzels


  • Author: Martha
  • Total Time: 30 min.

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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

  1. 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.
  2. 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!
  3. 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.
