Let’s talk about a treat that hits all the right notes — Salted White Chocolate Pretzel Caramel Clusters. Think of them as the snack version of your favorite rom-com: sweet, a little salty, totally comforting, and with just enough crunch to keep things interesting. These no-bake clusters combine the goodness of buttery caramel, crunchy pretzels, and creamy white chocolate, all finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt that takes them straight into snack heaven.
Ingredients
3 cups mini pretzels, roughly broken 🥨
½ cup creamy peanut butter
½ cup honey or ½ cup light corn syrup 🍯
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter 🧈
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups white chocolate chips or melting wafers 🤍
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Flaky sea salt, for topping 🌊
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
⏱️ 1 minute
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine peanut butter, honey (or corn syrup), brown sugar, and butter. Stir until melted and gently bubbling.
⏱️ 2–3 minutes
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Add the broken pretzels and fold until each piece is coated in the glossy caramel mixture. 😍
⏱️ 1 minute
Scoop large, tall clusters onto the baking sheet using a ¼-cup scoop. Do not flatten — this keeps the chunky, rustic look. Let cool slightly.
⏱️ 10–15 minutes
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate and coconut oil in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth and creamy. Allow to cool for 1 minute to thicken slightly. 🤍
⏱️ 2–3 minutes melting + 1 minute cooling
Spoon generous amounts of melted white chocolate over each cluster, allowing it to drip naturally down the sides for that dreamy finish. ✨
⏱️ 2 minutes
Immediately sprinkle flaky sea salt on top while the chocolate is still wet.
⏱️ 30 seconds
Let clusters set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
⏱️ 15–40 minutes
