Caramel Pretzel Delight Bars: A Sweet and Salty Indulgence

Serving: These bars are perfect on their own, but you can also serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of extra caramel sauce.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months.
Variants:

Peanut Butter Addition: Spread a thin layer of peanut butter over the caramel before topping with chocolate for a peanut butter twist.
Nutty Topping: Add crushed nuts such as pecans or almonds on top of the chocolate for extra crunch and flavor.
Dark Chocolate Version: Swap semi-sweet chocolate for dark chocolate for a richer, less sweet flavor.
FAQ:

Can I use regular pretzels instead of mini pretzels?
Yes, you can crush regular pretzels, but mini pretzels work best for an even texture.

Can I make these bars ahead of time?
Absolutely! These bars keep well in the refrigerator and are even better the next day after the flavors have melded.

What can I use instead of sweetened condensed milk?
For a dairy-free option, try using coconut milk and a sweetener like maple syrup or coconut sugar, though the texture may be slightly different.
