Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces mini pretzel twists
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup salted butter sliced into pats
  • 5 tablespoons light corn syrup

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the mini pretzel twists evenly across the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the light brown sugar, salted butter, and light corn syrup. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil.
  • Allow the mixture to boil for 3–4 minutes without stirring, then immediately pour it evenly over the pretzels.
  • Use a spatula to gently toss the pretzels so they are fully coated in the toffee mixture.
  • Bake for 10–15 minutes, stirring halfway through for even coating.
  • Remove from the oven and let the pretzels cool completely on the baking sheet; the toffee will harden as it cools.
  • Break apart clusters and store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper to keep the toffee from sticking and make cleanup easy.
  • Store in an airtight container to maintain crispness for up to 1 week.
  • Pretzel sticks, snaps, or minis can be substituted.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before cooling.
  • For gifting, package in jars or treat bags for a perfect holiday snack.
