How to Make Sweet Toffee Pretzel Mix
- Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a baking sheet with wax paper.
- In a large bowl, combine 12 ounces (340g) pretzel twists or sticks and 1 cup (140g) mixed nuts (e.g., pecans, almonds, cashews).
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar, ½ cup (120ml) light corn syrup, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Continue to boil for 3-5 minutes, or until the toffee reaches 250°F (121°C) on a candy thermometer. The mixture will thicken.
- Remove from heat and immediately pour the toffee over the pretzel and nut mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly until all pretzels and nuts are evenly coated.
- Spread the toffee-coated pretzels in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the toffee is set and lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking into pieces. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
