Ingredients

  • 1 batch caramels homemade or 200 store bought caramels see notes above
  • 24 ounces chocolate you can use milk chocolate candy bars or chocolate melts
  • 2 12 ounce bags pretzels (we used Snyder's butter pretzels, the square ones)
  • 8 ounces white chocolate melts

Instructions

  • Prepare homemade caramel (it should be enough to fill an entire jelly-roll pan, the recipe provided above is the perfect amount). Allow caramel to cool and cut into small squares about the same size as the pretzels.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate (not including the white chocolate) at 50% microwave power in 30 second increments, until melted, stirring each time.
  • Place a caramel between 2 pretzels and gently press together.
  • Dip half of the pretzel "sandwich" into the melted chocolate, shake off excess, and place on to wax paper. Repeat until you run out of caramel and/or pretzels.
  • When all the pretzel bites are done and completely set (you may need to put them in the refrigerator), melt white chocolate (same as above) and drizzle over the top of the bites.
  • Allow white chocolate to set, then serve!

Notes

Make Caramel Pretzel Bites Ahead of Time 

These covered pretzels can be made up to one week ahead of time. Too long after that, they loose their freshness. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry area.
