Snicker Pretzels
- 16 ounces, weight Pounder Pretzels (Get Them As Thick As You Can Get Them But Do Not Get The Soft Kind)
- FOR THE NOUGAT LAYER:
- 1/4 cups Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1/4 cups Milk
- 7 ounces, weight Marshmallow Fluff
- 1/4 cups Peanut Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- FOR THE CARAMEL LAYER:
- 14 ounces, weight Caramel Candies
- 1/4 cups Whipping Cream
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE LAYER:
- 8 ounces, weight Milk Chocolate Chips
- FOR THE PEANUT AND TOFFEE LAYER:
- 2 cups Salty Peanuts, Chopped
- 1 cup Toffee Pieces
- For the nougat layer:
- Melt the butter in a pot on medium heat. Add the sugar and whisk until the sugar has dissolved. Add the milk and whisk for 5 minutes. Begin to add the fluff and the peanut butter with a rubber spatula and fold until dissolved. Lastly, add the extract and turn down on low heat. Continue to stir so that the mixture won't stick to the pan.
- For the caramel layer:
- In a microwavable bowl, add the caramels and the whipping cream. Warm them up in the microwave for a minute at a time and stir until it is creamy.
- For the chocolate later:
- Melt the chocolate chips. I used the double boiler method where I placed the chip on the boiler and melted them until the chocolate was creamy. You can use whatever method you like to melt the chocolate.
- For the peanut and toffee layer:
- In a food processor or chopper, chop peanuts but do not chop them into a powder. You just don't want them to be bulky. Place peanuts and toffee in a bowl for dipping.
- For the assembly:
- Dip the pretzels in the nougat. It may seem as though the nougat is not sticking to the pretzel but keep dipping and it will and then place them on a cooling rack and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Once they are cooled, dip them in the caramel and place back on the cooling rack and allow to cool for another 10 minutes. Note: You can take a butter knife and clean up the excess dripping off the pretzels for a cleaner look.
- Finally, dip in the chocolate and roll the pretzel into the peanut and toffee and place back onto the cooling rack. Allow to cool completely for 25-30 minutes before eating.
- Enjoy!
