- 3 cups mini pretzels
- 6 tbsp butter
- 1 regular size box brownie mix
- Eggs (1 or 2, depending on directions)
- Vegetable oil
- Water
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- About 1/2 cup caramel sauce (squeeze bottle)
- Coarse salt (Trader Joe’s Himalayan pink salt grinder is perfect for this)
Melt butter in microwave in medium-sized bowl. Crush pretzels in ziploc bag with rolling pin, or in food processor until mostly fine crumbs (leave a few larger pieces) and add to bowl. Stir until coated well and pour into 13 x 9 x 2 baking pan sprayed with cooking spray (I use the Pampered Chef brownie pan) and press down to form a dense crust.
Prepare brownie mix per box instructions for cake style (can use pretzel bowl, a few crumbs will add a little texture!) Fold in chocolate chips. Carefully pour batter over crust and spread evenly. Drizzle caramel in zig-zag pattern and draw table knife cross-ways through caramel layer only. Sprinkle with salt.
Bake according to box directions. Test for doneness. Cool and cut into squares.
