Sweet & crunchy!
If you’re looking for the perfect mix of sweet and salty, then I have just the recipe for you.
These Butter Toffee Pretzels have a perfect balance of rich caramel flavor and crunchy peanuts and pretzels.
One of those delicious combinations that leaves you wanting more! Luckily, they’re super easy to make so you can whip up a batch whenever the craving strikes. Let’s go over how they’re made!
You’ll start out by making a simple homemade caramel sauce with butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup.
The mixture will boil for just a couple minutes and then it gets poured over the pretzels. Give them a good toss to evenly coat them, then mix in a bag of toffee bits. You’ll then transfer the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and pop them in the oven for 45 minutes, giving them a stir halfway through so they cook evenly.
The final step is dusting the hot pretzels with some finely chopped peanuts.
This adds a delicious crunch and nutty flavor that you can’t beat. Let the pretzels cool and then bag them up or keep them in a large airtight container so they’re nice and fresh. They make the perfect late night snack, holiday gift, or sweet indulgence. Give the recipe a try and let us know how you like it!
