Description
These No Bake Salted Caramel Pretzel Bites combine crunchy pretzels, gooey caramel, smooth chocolate, and flaky sea salt for the ultimate sweet-and-salty treat. Perfect for holidays, parties, or a quick dessert with no oven required.
Ingredients
Scale
40 mini pretzels
20 soft caramel candies (e.g., Kraft or Werther’s)
8 oz chocolate melting wafers (dark, milk, or semi-sweet)
1/4 cup milk chocolate chips (optional, for drizzle)
Coarse sea salt, to taste
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Arrange 20 mini pretzels in a single layer on the sheet.
Soften caramel candies in the microwave for 10 seconds, then place one caramel on each pretzel and flatten gently.
Top each caramel with another pretzel to create a sandwich. Press lightly.
Chill the assembled bites in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm them up.
Melt chocolate wafers in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
Dip each pretzel sandwich halfway or fully into the melted chocolate.
Optional: Melt milk chocolate chips and drizzle over the dipped bites.
Sprinkle sea salt over the bites while the chocolate is still soft.
Place the bites back in the fridge or freezer until the chocolate sets.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
Use a silicone mat for easy cleanup and no sticking.
Chill between steps to keep layers clean and defined.
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
Try gluten-free pretzels for a gluten-free version.
