  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

Preparing the Toffee:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  3. Add Sugar and Corn Syrup: Once the butter is melted, add the granulated sugar and light corn syrup. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil.
  4. Boil the Mixture: Allow the mixture to boil for 3-4 minutes without stirring, until it reaches a light golden color.
  5. Add Vanilla and Baking Soda: Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda. The mixture will bubble up, so be cautious.

Coating the Pretzels:

  1. Mix with Pretzels: In a large bowl, pour the toffee mixture over the pretzels. Gently stir to coat all the pretzels evenly.
  2. Add Nuts (Optional): If using nuts, add them to the mixture and stir to combine.

Baking the Pretzels:

  1. Spread on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated pretzels in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Bake: Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even coating and baking.

Cooling and Storing:

  1. Cool: Once baked, remove the pretzels from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet.
  2. Break Apart: After cooling, break apart any large clusters and store the butter toffee pretzels in an airtight container.
