Ingredients
  

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

1 cup brown sugar, packed

½ cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup pretzel pieces (plus extra for topping)

½ cup chocolate chips (milk or semisweet)

½ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk them together until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!

        Stir in Pretzels and Chocolate: Gently fold in the pretzel pieces and chocolate chips with a spatula, reserving a handful of pretzel pieces for topping.

          Spread the Batter: Pour the blondie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula.

            Drizzle Caramel: Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the surface of the blondie batter. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the caramel lightly into the batter for a marbled effect.

              Top & Sprinkle: Sprinkle the reserved pretzel pieces over the top of the batter and drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over everything. Finally, lightly sprinkle sea salt over the top for that perfect sweet and salty touch.

                Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).

                  Cool and Cut: Once baked, remove the blondies from the oven and let them cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 15-20 minutes. Then, lift them out using the parchment paper and let them cool completely before cutting into squares.

                    Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Salted Caramel Pretzel Blondies warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the delightful contrast of sweet caramel, salty pretzels, and buttery blondies — perfect for any occasion!
