- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 tbsp Water
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla
Additional:
- 4 cups Mini Pretzels
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick spray. Place a cooling rack over the pan and spray it with non-stick spray.
- Prepare the Caramel: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter, sugar, and water. Stir constantly and bring the mixture to a boil. Once it reaches 305 degrees, remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
