SERVES 10 // COOKING TIME 30 min, plus cooling time

INGREDIENTS
200g pretzels, broken into smaller pieces
250g butter
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups dark chocolate chips
1 tsp salt

METHOD
1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
2. Line a 30 cm × 15 cm baking tray with baking paper. Lay the pretzels on the tray and set aside.
3. Combine the butter and sugar in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, then leave to cook without stirring, until it is a dark caramel colour. Pour over the pretzels and bake for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven.
4. Immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the warm caramel pretzels. Set aside for 2–3 minutes until the chocolate has melted, then spread it over the pretzels. Sprinkle with salt.
5. Leave to cool completely at room temperature, then pop in the fridge until the chocolate has set. Break up into pieces and serve.
