Valentine’s Chocolate Pretzel Bark
Hi friends! Now that it’s the new year, it’s time to plan for all things Valentine’s Day, right? Valentine’s is one of my most favorite holidays, I love all the LOVE and sweets and treats. So naturally when a group of my favorite #CreativeFoodies blog buddies got together this month to bring you sweet Valentine’s treats, I was all in. And this Valentine’s Chocolate Pretzel Bark was born.
Pretzel Candy Bark Ingredients
If you’ve been around this blog for a bit, you may know that candy bark is a family favorite. I’ve shared a few different variations, but this time we swapped out our typical graham crackers for salty pretzel pieces and I am floored by how tasty it is! Here’s what you’ll need:
- Pretzels
- Butter
- Brown sugar
- White sugar
- White chocolate chips
- Valentine M&Ms
- Valentine sprinkles
How to Make Valentine’s Day Candy Bark
This Valentine’s Chocolate Pretzel Bark is the perfect combination of salty and sweet in one delicious treat! And top it off with cute Valentine’s Day sprinkles and M&Ms and not only does it taste great, it looks so cute too!
Simply preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a 10 x 15-inch jelly-roll pan with non-stick foil; arrange broken pretzel pieces to fit the bottom of the pan in a single layer. You’ll want to cover as much of the bottom of the pan as possible, but gaps here and there are just fine. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the brown and white sugar, stir to combine and bring mixture to a boil.
Tools Used to make this Pretzel Candy Bark Recipe:
Jelly Roll Pan: This pan by Nordic Ware is perfect for this recipe and more! Affordable and practical, you’ll get a lot of use out of this pan.
Silicone Spatula 3-piece Set: This should come with your Instant Pot, but if you misplaced yours grab another because it’s perfect for this recipe.
Sauce Pan: Green Pan is the ultimate in non stick, non toxic cooking! I love these saucepans and they’re not only perfect for this recipe, they’re a great kitchen essential!
