Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted butter
  • 1 1/3 cups Granulated sugar
  • 3 tbsp Water
  • 1 tbsp Dark corn syrup or light corn syrup
  • 16 oz Mini pretzels (or Snaps or Wheels)
  • 1 cup Heath Toffee Bits (up to 1 1/2 cups) optional

Instructions

  • Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on each sheet pan.
    16 oz Mini pretzels
  • Combine the butter, sugar, corn syrup, and water in a heavy saucepan. Bring it to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook until it reaches 300 degrees F. Once it reaches temperature remove it form the heat.
    1 cup Unsalted butter, 1 1/3 cups Granulated sugar, 1 tbsp Dark corn syrup, 3 tbsp Water
  • Working quickly drizzle the toffee over the pretzels while intermittently sprinkling the toffee bits over, while the toffee is still hot and not set up. Let them cool just a little and then break into pieces.
    1 cup Heath Toffee Bits

Notes

Work Quickly when drizzling the toffee over the pretzels and sprinkling the toffee bits. Toffee sets up pretty fast!
You don’t have to let them cool completely before breaking them. In fact, it’s best if they are still slightly soft. They break into individual pretzels better when the toffee is still a little soft.
Storage - These will keep for weeks stored in an airtight container or bag.
