Butter Toffee Pretzels are a delightful combination of salty pretzels coated in a rich and sweet toffee sauce, topped with crunchy Heath toffee bits.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces mini pretzel twists
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup salted butter (1 stick), sliced into pats
  • 5 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 8 ounces Heath English toffee bits, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°F. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil and generously coat with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Place pretzels in a large, heatproof mixing bowl.
  3. In a 3- to 4-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine packed light brown sugar, sliced butter pats, and light corn syrup. Stir constantly and bring to a gentle boil. Maintain boiling for 5 minutes.
  4. Remove saucepan from heat. Carefully stir in pure vanilla extract and baking soda. Mixture will bubble vigorously; stir until homogenized.
  5. Immediately pour hot toffee over pretzels. Using a wooden spoon or silicone spatula, stir gently to fully coat pretzel pieces.
  6. Spread coated pretzels evenly on prepared baking sheet. Evenly sprinkle half of the Heath toffee bits over the top.
  7. Bake pretzels for 60 minutes, turning every 15 minutes to ensure even toffee coverage.
  8. Immediately upon removing from oven, sprinkle remaining Heath toffee bits over pretzels.
  9. Allow toffee-coated pretzels to cool completely before breaking into clusters for serving.

Notes

  • Be careful when handling the hot toffee mixture as it can cause burns.
  • Store the cooled toffee pretzels in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
