Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Make caramel sauce by melting your butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar, milk, and corn syrup. Boil over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring constantly. Around 240°F (mixture will get thicker, a little shiny, and a tad darker). Remove from heat, add vanilla, and stir.
  2. Dip each pretzel in caramel and set on wax paper. You can choose to repeat this step for extra gooey pretzels.
  3. While caramel is setting, melt entire tray of chocolate candy quick according to package directions.
  4. When caramel is just a tad sticky to the touch, carefully lift rod and dip in chocolate. Place on a clean sheet of wax paper to harden.
  5. Be sure to sprinkle your preferred toppings immediately, before chocolate has set so that it sticks to the pretzels.
  6. For a beautiful white drizzle, wait for chocolate to harden, then melt a few squares of the white candy quick and drizzle over the top.

Notes

  • If you wish to dip two colors of pretzel rods you will only need to melt ½ of the package of chocolate candy quick and ½ a package of vanilla candy quick.
