Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups mini pretzels
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons optional toppings (sprinkles or sea salt)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and light corn syrup over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the butter has melted and the mixture begins to boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes without stirring.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda. The mixture will bubble up slightly as you stir.
Place the mini pretzels in a large mixing bowl, then pour the toffee mixture over them. Gently toss the pretzels with a spatula to ensure they are evenly coated.
Spread the toffee-coated pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even coating and baking.
Once baked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the pretzels to cool completely on the tray.
While the pretzels are cooling, melt the milk chocolate chips and white chocolate chips in separate microwave-safe bowls in 20-second increments, stirring after each interval until smooth.
Drizzle the melted milk chocolate and white chocolate over the cooled pretzels. If desired, sprinkle with optional toppings like sprinkles or sea salt while the chocolate is still wet.
Let the chocolate set for about 30 minutes at room temperature or speed up the process by placing the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Once the chocolate is fully set, break the mix into clusters and serve or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
