If you’re looking for the ultimate sweet and salty dessert, these Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownies are it. Fudgy, chocolatey brownies get taken to the next level with gooey swirls of caramel and a crunchy pretzel topping that gives you that perfect balance of flavors in every bite. They’re rich, decadent, and dangerously easy to make — the kind of dessert that disappears from the pan before the game even starts.
What I love most about them is how effortless they are — don’t tell anyone but you can start with your favorite box brownie mix or a homemade base if you prefer, then dress them up by swirling gooey salted caramel into the batter and sprinkle crushed pretzels on top for a dessert that looks and tastes like it came from a bakery.
They’re the perfect treat for football season, potlucks, or anytime you’re craving something that satisfies both your sweet tooth and salty cravings. Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an over-the-top dessert, or cut them into small squares for a bite-sized party sweet. Either way, you won’t go wrong with this winning combo.
