Caramel Pecan Snappers

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place one pecan half on each pretzel square.

3. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and butter. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil.

4. Once the mixture is boiling, continue to stir for an additional 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

5. Carefully spoon a small amount of the caramel mixture on top of the pecan on each pretzel square.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 6 minutes, just until the caramel is bubbly and spreadable.

7. Remove from the oven and allow the pretzels to cool slightly on the baking sheet.

8. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips either in a microwave-safe bowl in short intervals, stirring in between, or using a double boiler on the stove.

9. Once the chocolate is smooth and fully melted, dip each pretzel square into the chocolate, covering the caramel and pecan completely.

10. Return the dipped pretzels to the baking sheet and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

11. Once the chocolate has hardened, these Caramel Pecan Snappers are ready to be enjoyed!
