▢
cut and serve turner
▢
Baking Sheet

Ingredients

▢ 12 ounce semi-sweet chocolate chips good quality chocolate divided into pieces (I like ghiardelli best for melting)
▢ 8 ounces mini pretzel twists half of a regular 16-ounce bag
▢ 11 bags Kraft Caramel Bits or homemade caramel
▢ sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt 8 ounces of the chocolate chips gently in the microwave (on low heat, stirring every 15 seconds) until smooth.
Spread the chocolate evenly over the parchment. Immediately add the pretzel twists over the top (it's ok if they overlap!) and gently press them into the chocolate.
Add caramel bits to a microwave safe bowl with 2 tablespoons water and melt according to package instructions (on high for 2 minutes). Stir well and drizzle the melted caramel over the top of all of the pretzels.
Melt remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and drizzle over the caramel. Sprinkle with sea salt.
Refrigerate until hardened.
Cut or tear into pieces, Enjoy!
