Caramel Apple Pretzel Bites
My caramel apple pretzel bites are the perfect sweet and salty treat. Made with Rolo candy, tart apples, pretzels, and toffee bits, they are easy to make and great for parties and holiday snacking.
Servings: 48
Ingredients
- 48 Snaps pretzels
- 48 Rolo candy, unwrapped
- ¼ cup chocolate candy melts
- ¼ cup Heath Bars, crushed or toffee bits
- 2 Granny Smith apples
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay out the pretzels.
- Remove the wrap from the Rolo candies. Place one Rolo on each pretzel.
- Place the pretzels in the oven for about 3 minute or until the Rolos start to soften.
- Place a piece of apple on top of each Rolo and gently press down.
- Microwave the chocolate melts in a piping bag or zip-loc bag in 30 second intervals until the chocolate has melted. (If you don't have a bag, you can drizzle the chocolate using a spoon or fork.)
- Drizzle the chocolate over the pretzel bites.
- Sprinkle the the pretzels with crushed Heath Bars or toffee bits.
- Let the pretzels rest until the chocolate hardens.
Notes
- Prevent the apples from browning by soaking them in Sprite or tossing them with lemon juice. Make sure to pat them dry before making the pretzels.
- Make sure to not over bake them. These only need to be in the oven for about 3 minutes. If you bake them much longer, the Rolo candy will melt.
- Work fast. Add the apple pieces fast before the chocolate starts to set.
- Drizzling the chocolate. You can use a piping bag, zip-loc bag, or just a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate over the pretzels.
- Cut the apples in small pieces. Make sure to cut the apples into small pieces that will fit on the pretzel.
