Very yummy. I take the pretzels, dip them in the caramel, roll them in nuts after it's set up a bit, and then generously drizzle white and semi-sweet chocolate over the top. perfect for gifts.

I made exactly as is with the exception of dipping the pretzel rods in semi-sweet and white chocolate after the caramel dried. I made 5 kinds for Christmas: 1. White with brown lines 2. White with crushed peppermints 3. White with red or green M&Ms 4. Brown with white lines 5. Brown with crushed peanuts

We made our own caramel using 2 C sugar 1 C corn syrup 1 C butter and a can of condensed milk - Homemade caramel worked well, but next time I may try melting caramel candies..sounds a little easier. I was nervous the pretzels might be too sweet and stick to teeth but everyone LOVED them, and they looked cute!

These are amazing, I feel like a gourmet candy chef! I used parchment paper and I still had to spray it to keep from sticking. I used kraft caramel bits, they were very easy to melt and work with. After the caramel had hardened in the freezer I covered it with semi-sweet chocolate and drizzled with white chocolate. I rolled a few in crushed pecans. Would make a great treat for bridal/baby showers sprinkled with the colors of the theme. Can't wait to make again.

Perfect for Christmas !!! Make sure to have plenty of time to make these babies, but they are so worth it. Some of our favorite combos are: Caramel & Pecans Caramel, Chocolate & Pecans Chocolate & mini M&MS Caramel, White Chocolate & Pecans Just think of your favorite candybars to give you inspiration.

The caramel melted pretty nicely, although I heated in 30 sec. spurts. Next time I will spray the wax paper with some cooking spray since they stuck to it pretty badly. I lost a few peeling them off. We coated in chocolate after the caramel cooled and decorated with crushed butterfingers & kitkats, sprinkles, m&m's. Great use for all that left over Halloween candy!

You really can't go wrong with these. Caramel, chocolate, pretzels.. They're delicious! After making around 100 rods, here are my words of advice. Thin the caramel a lot; it makes it much easier to work with.. the thicker the caramel the more often the pretzels break. To remove excess caramel, spin the rod against the side of your pan (I used a small crockpot and it worked wonderfully). DON'T lay the caramels on WAX PAPER! Some may have already known this but I didn't.. big mistake! Next time I'll try parchment paper. But because we used wax paper, the only way we were able to get them to release was by laying the paper/pretzels on a slightly warmed burner (glasstop stove). It worked but wasn't preferred. We decorated with holiday sprinkles and the end result was beautiful. Perfect project for a Girls' Day In :)

These are great! Tastes just like a twix bar the way I made them. I used caramel bits by Kraft, which melt up quickly, and you don't have to unwrap. TIP: Place a piece of wax paper on a cookie sheet and spray it with non-stick cooking spray REALLY WELL. If you don't do this, the caramel WILL stick! Coat the pretzel rods with the caramel (spreading with a small spoon works well), then place on the cookie sheet, and put cookie sheet in the refrigerator to set. While mine were in the frig, I melted about 3/4 of a bag of milk chocolate chips in the microwave. I spread the melted chocolate over the set caramel with a spoon. Then drizzled with melted white chocolate and sprinkled with Halloween sprinkles. Works well if you have help in this step. I was doing the milk chocolate, my son drizzled the white and my daugter decorates with the sprinkles. These were a big hit with my Sunday school class for a Halloween treat! Will make these again, I'm sure.
