Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies
Yep, you read that right. Salty, sweet, gooey, chocolate. Everything you need for an awesome day! The best part is everything is from the store, from the brownie mix to the caramel sauce. With a little planning, you can get it all on sale for little or nothing too! These will be a hit at an office carry-in or picnic as every chocolate lover will be enthralled with the sweet salty goodness.
Making Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies Special
If you have a special occasion coming up, Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies is your dessert! I make them extra special by using an extra special caramel sauce that I found at a farmer’s market. Check your local shops and markets for a special caramel sauce. Something that is handmade typically has more flavor as it’s made with ingredients like butter and cream. The trick is to use a caramel sauce in Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies that you like. If you like it on ice cream, you’ll love it on the brownies.

Instructions
- Heat oven according to brownie package directions.
- Spray a 13x9 pan with cooking spray.
- Mix the brownie mix according to the package directions and pour into the prepared pan.
- Press pretzels into the brownie mix so that the entire bottom of the pan is covered, like this:
- Bake according to the package directions.
- Let the pan cool for about 10 minutes.
- Pour the caramel sauce over the top, spreading in a thick layer. If the caramel is stiff, microwave in 1 minute increments until it’s pourable.

- Cut into squares and serve.
Chilling Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies
If you chill your Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies, it will help your caramel sauce set up and make for prettier squares when you cut them. The opposite is also true if you like a more liquid caramel. Let the Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies sit out in a warm room and the caramel will get soft and runny, giving your squares a draped look. Either way, Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies are an amazing end to a meal!
