Let’s discuss how they’re made!You’ll begin by preparing a simple homemade caramel sauce with butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup. The mixture will simmer for a few minutes before being poured over the pretzels. Give them a good toss to evenly coat, then add a bag of toffee bits. The mixture will then be transferred to a parchment-lined baking sheet and baked for 45 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure equal cooking.
The final step is to dust the hot pretzels with coarsely chopped peanuts. This provides a great crunch and nutty flavor that cannot be beat. Allow the pretzels to cool before bagging or storing them in a large airtight container to ensure they remain fresh. They make an excellent late-night snack, Christmas present, or sweet treat.
