Ingredients

Scale

12 oz Ghiardelli or other high quality semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
8 oz mini pretzel twists (half of a regular 16 ounce bag)
11 oz Kraft caramel bits or homemade caramel
Sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt 8 ounces of the chocolate chips gently in the microwave (on low heat, stirring every 15 seconds) until smooth. Spread the chocolate evenly over the parchment, immediately adding the pretzel twists over the top (it's okay if they overlap) and gently press them into the chocolate. Add caramel bits to a microwave safe bowl with 2 tablespoons water and melt according to package directions (on high for 2 minutes). Stir well and drizzle the melted caramel over the top of all the pretzels. Melt remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and drizzle over the caramel. Sprinkle with sea salt. Refrigerate until hardened. Cut or tear into pieces.
