In a bowl, mix crushed pretzels, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Press the mixture firmly into a greased 9\u00d79-inch baking pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let cool.<br \/>\n2. Make the caramel layer:** In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and heavy cream over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture begins to boil. Cook for 4-5 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Pour the caramel evenly over the cooled pretzel crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.<br \/>\n3. Add the chocolate topping:** Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth. Spread the melted chocolate over the caramel layer. If using white chocolate, drizzle over the top for decoration.<br \/>\n4. Chill for at least 1 hour, or until set. Slice into bars and enjoy the crunch!<\/p>\n<p>Per continuare a leggere, clicca su ( SUCCESSIVA \u300b) qui sotto!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients: For the base: \u2013 2 cups crushed pretzels \u2013 1\/2 cup unsalted butter, melted \u2013 1\/4 cup granulated sugar&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":709,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-707","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=707"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":710,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/707\/revisions\/710"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/709"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/italiadelgusto.foode.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
