Ingredients
  

For the Toffee
  • 1 cup Butter Use unsalted for greater control over saltiness.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Choose light or dark based on your preference.
  • 1/4 cup Corn Syrup Can be substituted with honey.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Opt for pure vanilla for optimal taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda Essential for a light texture.
For the Pretzels
  • 8 ounces Pretzel Snaps Any pretzel shape works, but snaps coat evenly.
  • 1 cup Heath Bits (toffee bits) Feel free to swap with other chocolate bits.
  • 1/2 cup Finely Chopped Roasted Peanuts You can replace these with your favorite nuts.

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Butter Toffee Pretzels
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup over medium heat. Stir gently until melted and boiling, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and baking soda. The mixture will foam up.
  4. Pour the toffee mixture over the pretzel snaps in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly to coat.
  5. Sprinkle Heath bits over the coated pretzels and stir gently to distribute.
  6. Spread the pretzel mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 45 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  7. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped peanuts, and allow to cool completely before breaking into pieces.
