Description

A festive, no-bake holiday snack featuring salty pretzels, buttery toffee, and sweet chocolate. This easy-to-make bark is perfect for parties, gifts, or satisfying a sweet craving.

Ingredients

Scale

12–16 oz pretzel rods or pretzel twists
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 oz white chocolate chips
1/2 cup roasted salted peanuts, chopped
2–3 tablespoons red and green sprinkles
Flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

Line a large rimmed baking sheet (10×15 inch) with parchment paper. Arrange pretzel rods in a single layer on the pan.
In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a deep amber color (about 5-7 minutes).
Immediately pour the hot toffee over the pretzels and spread evenly with a spatula. Let sit for 2 minutes to set slightly.
Melt chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Pour over the toffee layer and spread evenly. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top if desired.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle chopped peanuts, sprinkles, and flaky sea salt over the surface. Press gently to adhere.
Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate is completely set and hard.
Lift the bark out using the parchment paper overhang and break into irregular shards. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

Ensure the chocolate is not overheated to prevent seizing. Use quality chocolate chips for better melting and gloss. The bark can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the fridge for up to a month. Do not freeze as it may cause chocolate bloom.
