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