Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 20 pretzel rods
- 1 8-ounce bag toffee chips
- 1 11-ounce bag caramels, unwrapped
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 4 ounces milk, dark, or white chocolate (or a mix), melted for drizzling
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Pretzels and Toffee: Place the pretzel rods on a sheet of parchment paper. Pour the toffee chips onto a plate to have them ready for coating.
- Melt the Caramel Mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unwrapped caramels and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring well after each until the caramel is fully melted and smooth.
- Dip and Coat Pretzels: Dip each pretzel rod into the warm caramel mixture, covering about two-thirds of the pretzel. Immediately roll the caramel-coated portion in the toffee chips, pressing gently so the toffee adheres. Place the coated pretzels back onto the parchment paper and repeat with the remaining rods.
- Melt and Drizzle Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave until melted and smooth, stirring every 15 seconds to avoid burning. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel and toffee-covered pretzels. Allow them to set completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Store and Serve: Once set, store the caramel pretzels in a container separated by parchment layers or wrap each individually in parchment paper and place in a resealable bag. They can be made 1 to 2 weeks ahead of time and stay fresh.
Notes
- You can use milk, dark, white chocolate, or a combination for drizzling according to your preference.
- The caramel pretzels can be made in advance and stored for up to two weeks.
- Ensure the caramel is not too hot when dipping to prevent melting the pretzels.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking while the caramel sets.
