Salted Caramel pretzel bark
I found this recipe on pinterest and couldn’t resist trying it out right away.  Pretzels and choclate chips are practically staple foods around our house and then you add caramel to it… all I can say is yummy!  My only advice it to be prepared to make more than one batch because this stuff will go fast.  Thanks Flower Patch Farm Girl!

Here’s all you need to make this:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • bag of mini pretzels
  • 12-oz bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • sea salt
