To make this irresistible Christmas treat, follow these simple steps:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a saucepan, melt 1 cup of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and stir until well combined. Let it cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens.
Place the salted pretzels in a single layer on the lined baking sheet. Pour the caramel sauce over the pretzels, making sure each one is covered. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and sprinkle with 1 cup of chocolate chips. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the chocolate is melted and spread it evenly over the pretzels using a spatula.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top of the pretzel mixture, creating the reindeer antlers. Place red and green M&Ms on top of the white chocolate to resemble Christmas lights.
Place the baking sheet in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Once chilled, break the mixture into pieces and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
There you have it - a simple yet delicious Christmas reindeer crack recipe that will be a hit with everyone. So, gather your friends and family, and enjoy this festive treat together. Happy holidays!
