Time 11m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 package pretzel rods (10 ounces)
12 ounces chocolate (milk or dark )
6 ounces chocolate candy melts (white or milk )
14 ounces caramel squares (unwrapped)
1 tablespoon light cream

Steps:

  • Line a large sheet or pan with parchment paper.
  • Combine the caramel squares and light cream in a medium microwave safe bowl.
  • Microwave the mixture 2-3 minutes (in 30-second increments, stirring after every 30 seconds) until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
  • Pour the caramel mixture into a tall glass measuring cup or mug. Dip each pretzel rod ⅔ of the way to cover in caramel. Place on parchment paper to cool.
  • Once the caramel is set, melt the chocolate in the microwave on 40% power for 45 seconds. Stir and continue microwaving at 20-second intervals until just melted. Stir until smooth.
  • Dip the caramel-coated pretzels into the melted chocolate and place on parchment paper to cool. (You may want to pour the chocolate into a tall glass measuring cup or mug.)
  • Melt the chocolate melts in a small zippered bag and snip the corner off. Drizzle over chocolate. Add favorite decorations if desired.
  • Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 2 ½ dozen.

Time 1h45m

Yield 24 pretzel turtles

Number Of Ingredients 4

24 pecan halves
24 mini pretzel twists
24 individually wrapped soft caramel squares
8 ounces good-quality milk chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Put the pecan halves on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake, shaking the sheet once halfway through, until lightly toasted, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a plate to cool.
  • Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Arrange the pretzels neatly on the baking sheet, then top each pretzel with an unwrapped caramel. Bake until the caramels soften (but are definitely not melting), 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently press a pecan half onto each caramel, just enough for the caramel to fill the pretzel. Set aside to cool completely.
  • Remove the cooled pretzel/caramels from the baking sheet. Spoon 24 small dollops (1 1/2-teaspoon helpings) of the melted chocolate all over the baking sheet, then lightly drop a pretzel onto the middle of each dollop, making sure the pretzel is centered. Allow them to cool completely before serving (you can hasten this along in the fridge).
