# What You Need:
→ Snack Base
01 - 3 cups mini pretzels
02 - 2 cups mixed unsalted nuts (cashews, almonds, pecans, peanuts)
→ Caramel Coating
03 - 1 cup granulated sugar
04 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter
05 - 1/4 cup heavy cream
06 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, plus extra for sprinkling
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine mini pretzels and mixed unsalted nuts, then set aside.
03 - In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt unsalted butter. Add granulated sugar and stir constantly until the mixture dissolves and turns a golden amber color, about 5 to 7 minutes.
04 - Carefully whisk in heavy cream; the mixture will bubble vigorously. Stir in sea salt and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
05 - Immediately pour the hot caramel over the pretzel and nut mixture. Gently toss with a spatula to coat evenly.
06 - Spread the coated mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle an extra pinch of sea salt on top. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring halfway through until caramel is set and slightly darkened.
07 - Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Break into clusters before serving or packaging.
