I was inspired to post this recipe after seeing a similar peanut butter pretzel sandwich recipe on Instagram (via one of my favorite food bloggers @kalejunkie). Rolo Salted Pretzels were my go-to snack in high school. I don’t really know where or how I got my hands on this recipe - I think my best friends mom made it up because she used to make these for us ALL the time! These bite-sized babies are SO easy to make and are dangerously good...
INCREDIENTS
One bag of Rold Gold Original Pretzel Twists
One bag of ROLO candies
2 cups chocolate morsels
2 TBS butter
1 TBS olive oil
Falksalt Crystal Flakes *I use this salt on EVERYTHING. I am truly obsessed with it and am linking it below for those interested.
DIRECTIONS
To make the Rolo pretzel sandwiches:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place pretzels on a lined baking sheet (they will not expand in the oven, so you can cram as many of them on the baking sheet as possible).
Place a ROLO on top of each pretzel with the larger side down.
Bake in the oven for 3-5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and quickly add a second pretzel on top of each ROLO, creating a ‘pretzel sandwich’. Let cool and set aside.
To make the melted chocolate:
Place chocolate morsels into a microwave safe bowl. Add butter and olive oil.
Microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring in-between each session.
Stop microwaving when the chocolate is creamy and lump-free! It will take a few minutes.
The final touch:
Drizzle melted chocolate over pretzels using a fork.
Immediately sprinkle Falksalt over pretzels.
Enjoy! *I like to keep the pretzels in the fridge in-between munching so they stay cool and harden a bit.
