Ingredients:

  • 1 cup small pretzel twists or pretzel snaps
  • 1/2 cup caramel bits or soft caramel candies (unwrapped)
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup finely diced dried apples or freeze-dried apple pieces
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup milk or dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Caramel Apple Pretzel Bites

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Pretzels:
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Melt the Caramel:
    • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel bits or soft caramel candies with the heavy cream. Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the caramel is completely melted and smooth.
  3. Assemble the Bites:
    • Using a small spoon, carefully drizzle a little bit of the melted caramel onto each pretzel. Immediately sprinkle a few pieces of diced dried apples on top of the caramel before it sets. Allow the caramel to cool and set slightly, about 5-10 minutes.
  4. Melt the Chocolate:
    • In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt the white chocolate chips and the milk or dark chocolate chips in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  5. Drizzle with Chocolate:
    • Drizzle the melted white chocolate over half of the pretzel bites and the melted milk or dark chocolate over the other half. If you want a hint of spice, you can sprinkle a little ground cinnamon on top of the white chocolate-drizzled pretzels.
  6. Set and Serve:
    • Allow the chocolate to cool and harden completely at room temperature or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for faster setting. Once set, transfer the caramel apple pretzel bites to a serving dish or airtight container.

Tips:

  • Storage: These bites can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Variations: For added texture, you can sprinkle some crushed nuts (like pecans or walnuts) on top of the caramel before drizzling with chocolate.

These Caramel Apple Pretzel Bites are perfect for parties, holiday treats, or just when you need a quick and satisfying snack!
