Caramel Pretzel Magic Bars

Salty pretzels, sweet caramel, and melt-in-your-mouth chocolate make up this sweet and salty treat. These easy Pretzel Magic Bars can be ready to eat in under an hour, so what are you waiting for?!

One of our favorite things to do is to light a fire pit and invited the neighbors to join us-usually with some drinks and sweet treats thrown in the mix. This past Saturday I whipped up these ooey-gooey Caramel Pretzel Bars to share and they were a huge hit as usual!

While I call these simply caramel pretzel bars I've heard them called many other names: magic bars, kitchen sink bars, million dollar bars...whatever you prefer to call them one thing is true: they are absolutely delicious!

Why I love this recipe

What I love about these bars is how easy they are to make- no big pile of dishes in the sink to wash afterward.

They're also the perfect mix of salty and sweet and jam-packed with flavor. Every bite explodes with caramel, chocolate, coconut, and pretzel-it's fantastic!

Ingredients:

• graham crackers
• butter
• sweetened condensed milk
• mini pretzel sticks
• caramel bits
• milk chocolate chocolate chips
• unsweetened shredded coconut

Step by step

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 by 13 casserole dish with nonstick spray.
2. Mix melted butter and graham crackers in a medium bowl and then press into the bottom of the prepared dish.
3. Pour half the can of condensed milk over the graham crackers.
4. Sprinkle with 1 cup of pretzels.
5. Melt caramel bits in a small bowl in the microwave according to package instructions. Pour over the pretzels and use a spatula sprayed with nonstick spray to smooth evenly.
6. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and coconut.
7. Pour the remaining condensed milk over the bars and top with the remaining pretzels.
8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the coconut is golden. Allow to cool before slicing.

Expert tip: For an extra pretty presentation I like to add some extra chocolate chips on top as well.
