Salty & Sweet

i was craving some homemade sweetness,

so i did a little experimenting & this was the final product:

thisiswhyyourefat.com

praline-y goop on a pretzel.

insanely simple to make & soooo gooooood.

::recipe::

makes about 30 pretzel pralines

heat 1 stick butter in a pot until completely melted

add 2 tsp vanilla, turn the heat on the stove to low

add 2.5 cups light brown sugar to the mixture

add 1 at a time, stirring in before adding the next

note: my mixture was a little thick so i added a tiny bit of water to the pot (just enough to thin it out a bit. less than 1/4 cup)

add nuts - about a bag's worth/as many as you need to take up most of the gooey sugar coating

i didn't have whole pecans, so i used a mixture of walnuts, unsalted almonds,

& crushed pecans

note: i think i'll toast the raw nuts next time before adding to mixture

still on low heat, mix nuts into the mixture

lay pretzels on parchment paper

the original flavor pretzel crisps sold at costco worked perfectly

scoop spoonfuls of coated nuts & goo onto pretzels

let cool

enjoy!
