I brought these savory-sweet pretzels to a family gathering, and they disappeared from the dessert tray before dessert was even served! My family raves about how awesome they are. —Carrie Bennett, Madison, Wisconsin

You can really switch any of the candy chips or nuts out for a different kind - I put in peanut butter chips instead of butterscotch because that's what I had, for example. They are awesome.

I've made these several times (without walnuts) and everyone raves. A must for a quick and easy treat to bring somewhere! :)

Plan on making a double batch, they won't last long. I like to give them as a gift with a recipe card attached. The only change I make to the recipe is that I leave the pretzels the full length & sometimes I substitue peanut butter chips for the butterscotch.

Sweet & salty, a perfect combination! I found that people really liked them with mini chocolate chips, chopped pecans & a few regular size chocolate chips-like a turtle candy on a pretzel.

I have made these multiple times for parties, gatherings and fundraisers. There is never anything but crumbs leftover in a very short time. These things are addictive!

Fab-u-lous!!! I took these to my MOPS group and the ladies loved them. My family asks for more, and I usually end up making a double batch. The kids can help, too. Wonderful combination!

A mini crockpot works well to keep the Caramel the right temperature. This recipe is a keeper!

Echoing a previous comment, I brought these to a Memorial Day BBQ and they disappeared before the desserts were "officially" served. People were asking who brought these so they could get the recipe.

this is a great recipe...really easy and fun. I've made it with dark and white choc, also with cinnamon and peanut butter chips in addition to the toffee and mini choc chips. People always ask for the recipe and beg me to bring a batch to the next gathering :-)
