Caramel Pretzels
Report
Caramel Pretzels combine the sweet, creamy texture of melted caramel and toffee chips with the salty crunch of pretzel rods. Each pretzel is dipped about two-thirds into a smooth caramel and then rolled in toffee bits for a textured coating. The addition of a chocolate drizzle—whether milk, dark, or white chocolate—adds a rich, glossy finish that sets upon cooling, making these a delightful treat with layers of sweet and salty flavor.
Description
Caramel Pretzels are made by dipping pretzel rods into a creamy, melted caramel mixture that incorporates heavy cream for smoothness. After dipping, the pretzels are rolled in toffee chips to create an added crunch and sweet contrast against the salted pretzels. Once all are coated, a melted chocolate and coconut oil drizzle is applied over the set caramel, lending a subtle additional sweetness and visual appeal. Allowing the chocolate to fully set takes about 30 minutes, after which the pretzels can be stored wrapped or layered with parchment. The combination of salted pretzels, chewy caramel, crunchy toffee, and rich chocolate creates a textured treat that balances sweet and salty flavors.

Ingredients
- 20 pretzel rods
- 1 toffee chips 8 ounce bag
- 1 caramels 11 ounce bag, unwrapped
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 4 ounces milk chocolate melted for drizzling, or dark or white chocolate, or a mix of them
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Place the pretzel rods on a sheet of parchment paper. Place the toffee chips on a plate.
- Combine the caramels and heavy cream in a bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring after each, until the caramel is melted completely and smooth.
- Dip each pretzel in the caramel - I cover it about ⅔ of the way. Right after dipping, roll each pretzel in the toffee chips, covering as much of the caramel as you can. Place the pretzel rod back on the parchment and repeat with remaining pretzels.
- Once finished, melt the chocolate (you can use dark, milk or white! It’s up to you) and coconut oil together in a microwave safe bowl until smooth. Use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over the caramel pretzels. Let set completely, about 30 minutes. You can package these up in a container between layers or parchment, or wrap each singly in parchment and store in a resealable bag. We love them!
- As a note, I’d say you can make them 1 to 2 weeks ahead of time and they will stay fresh.
