How To Make butterscotch pretzel brittle

  • 1

    bake the toffee-covered pretzels at this point in a 400 degree oven for just under 5 minutes

    While the toffee is still really hot (DO NOT TOUCH IT like I did) sprinkle the butterscotch chips over top to let them melt onto the toffee,then break it up into pieces.
