Pretzel Brittle

By JanF1201

Ingredients

• 1/2 bag of mini pretzel twists
• 2 sticks butter
• 1 cup of brown sugar
• 1 bag of chocolate chips
• sea salt or table salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350
Line large jelly roll pan with aluminum foil and lay a single layer of pretzels down
In medium sauce pan, melt the butter and the brown sugar until sugar is dissolved. Let it boil gently just until it starts to stick to the bottom and it forms a nice smooth caramel. You'll want to let it bubble a little and get really thick.
Remove from heat and pour evenly over the top of the pretzels. Put in the oven at 350 degrees for five minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top. You can let the caramel melt the chips, but I prefer to put it back in the oven for one minute
Spread the chocolate chips around with a spatula until mostly melted
sprinkle generously with salt
Let cool on the counter top for a few minutes and then pop in the freezer for a least 2-3 hours.
When it comes out of the freezer, break it up into uneven chunks with your hands and serve!
