The Best Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark is a sweet, salty, and crunchy treat layered with crispy pretzels, buttery homemade caramel, and rich melted chocolate, topped with flaky sea salt. It’s perfect for gifting or snacking any time.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups mini salted pretzels
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk, or dark)
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt
  • Optional: 1/4 cup melted white chocolate for drizzling
  • Optional: 1/4 cup crushed nuts or sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Spread pretzels evenly over the baking sheet to form a single layer.
  3. In a saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly. Let simmer for about 3 minutes until thick and smooth.
  4. Pour caramel over the pretzels and spread evenly with a spatula.
  5. Bake for 5–7 minutes until caramel is bubbling.
  6. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips over hot caramel. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to soften, then spread into an even layer.
  7. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and any optional toppings.
  8. Cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for 30–45 minutes until set.
  9. Break into pieces and store or serve.

Notes

  • Drizzle white chocolate for contrast and decoration.
  • Swirl in peanut butter chips for added flavor.
  • Top with crushed nuts, coconut, or holiday candy for variation.
  • Use graham crackers or saltines as a base for a toffee twist.
  • Store chilled if your kitchen is warm to keep the chocolate firm.
