Ingredients
2 cups mini pretzels
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (for topping)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Spread mini pretzels in a single layer on the sheet.
3. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, then stir in brown sugar.
4. Allow mixture to bubble, stirring for 2–3 minutes until thickened.
5. Remove from heat, then stir in vanilla extract and baking soda.
6. Immediately pour the toffee mixture over the pretzels and toss to coat quickly.
7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, stirring halfway through.
8. Let cool completely so the toffee hardens before serving or storing.
Notes
Work quickly when pouring the toffee; it hardens fast.
Stir pretzels midway during baking for an even coat and to prevent burning.
