Butter Toffee Pretzels

Print Recipe

Addictive Butter Toffee Pretzels with a perfect balance of sweet and salty, wrapped in a glossy, crackly toffee coating.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 cups mini pretzel twists or sticks
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Optional toppings: Sea salt flakes
  • Optional toppings: Chopped pecans or almonds
  • Optional toppings: Melted chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the packed light brown sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is bubbling, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat briefly and stir in the vanilla extract and the 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. The mixture will foam up as the baking soda reacts. Stir until the foam settles and the toffee is uniformly lightened.
  4. Place the 8 cups of mini pretzels in a large mixing bowl. Pour the hot toffee mixture over the pretzels and gently stir with a spatula to coat them evenly.
  5. Spread the coated pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to encourage even coating and prevent sticking.
  7. Remove from the oven and let the pretzels cool completely on the baking sheet.
  8. Optional: drizzle with melted chocolate and sprinkle sea salt flakes or chopped nuts before the toffee fully hardens.

Notes

Use room temperature butter for even melting. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
