Description

This Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark combines crunchy mini pretzels with rich, buttery caramel and melted semi-sweet chocolate, finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt for the perfect balance of sweet and salty. It’s an easy, no-fail dessert that’s perfect for holidays or any snack craving.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 cups mini pretzels (twisted or snaps)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 9×13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper or foil to ensure easy removal and cleanup.
  2. Arrange Pretzels: Spread the mini pretzels evenly in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, covering the entire surface.
  3. Make Caramel: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter together with the packed brown sugar. Stir constantly and bring the mixture to a boil; allow it to boil for 3 minutes until thick and bubbly for the perfect caramel consistency.
  4. Pour Caramel Over Pretzels: Immediately pour the hot caramel evenly over the pretzel layer, gently spreading with a spatula to ensure full coverage.
  5. Bake the Caramel Pretzels: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5 minutes to allow the caramel to set slightly.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot caramel. Let them sit for 2 to 3 minutes so they melt completely.
  7. Spread Melted Chocolate: Gently spread the melted chocolate evenly over the caramel-covered pretzels with a spatula.
  8. Sprinkle Sea Salt: While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top to enhance the sweet and salty flavor.
  9. Cool and Set: Allow the bark to cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate until firm and set.
  10. Serve: Once set, break the bark into pieces and serve immediately or store properly.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • For an extra touch, add chopped nuts such as pecans or almonds on top before the chocolate sets.
  • You can drizzle white chocolate over the finished bark for additional flair and flavor contrast.
