Smoked Butter Toffee Pretzels
Smoked Butter Toffee Pretzels are quite the sweet and salty recipe treat!
And the extra kiss of wood fired flavor adds a little something special too đŸ™‚
These were inspired by my favorite dessert of all time, Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark and also my Smoked Churro Chex Mix.
Not over the top sweet, but a very delicious snack or dessert to enjoy.
How to Make Smoked Butter Toffee Pretzels
You’ll need only a few ingredients… pretzels (duh đŸ˜‰ ), butter, brown sugar, and light corn syrup.
Not pictured is chocolate chips that you’ll melt and toss in after they are smoked.
First set a skillet over medium heat and add a stick of butter, 2/3 cup brown sugar, and 1/3 cup light corn syrup.
Once it starts to bubble, cook 4 to 5 minutes stirring a few times.
I had a 16 ounce bag of pretzels and most of that (about 12 ounces) went into a casserole dish.
And pour the caramel mixture in the dish with the pretzels.
Chop 4 Heath bars into tiny bits and toss most of those in as well.
Toss together with a rubber spatula.
At this point the pretzels will not be evenly coated which is perfectly fine.
Set the smoker to 225 degrees and place the dish on the grill grate for 2 hours.
And toss them with the spatula a few times throughout.
As you can see, the pretzels are coated in the buttery toffee goodness, some coated more than others but we are not looking for perfection here đŸ™‚
While the pretzels are still hot, add the remaining Heath bar toffee bits, more brown sugar, and a cup of melted chocolate chips.
Toss them a few times but again, not looking for each one to be perfectly coated.
Smoked Butter Toffee Pretzels are quite the addicting treat!
Not over the top sweet, a great buttery and smoky flavor making them unique and delicious.
