Chocolate Covered Pretzel Brownies

Some people keep dream journals beside their bed. I keep a recipe journal. You see, every so often, a brilliant recipe idea pops into my head. Something so ridiculously tasty sounding that I can’t believe I haven’t thought about it before. It tends to happen right before I fall asleep– hence the recipe journal. I always sleepily jot down whatever I’m thinking of and go to bed dreaming of chocolate clouds.

So, say hello to chocolate covered pretzel brownies AKA the brownies of my literal dreams AKA super fudgy brownies loaded with chocolate covered pretzels.

Now, usually I would go on a whole spiel explaining how delicious these fun brownies are and why you need to make them, blah blah. But like…need I say more?

Basically they’re what your salty-sweet chocolatey dreams are made of. Plus they’re the perfect treat to whip up for the Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day, or pretty much any occasion where you want to eat a decadent, show stopping dessert.

Tips for the best chocolate covered pretzel brownies

• Make sure the sugar is melted: The key to getting fudgy, crackly top brownies like from the box is getting your sugar and butter to homogenize. Make sure that the butter and sugar mixture gets nice and glossy and smooth to ensure the perfect texture.
• Use good chocolate: With simple recipes, the quality of your ingredients if SO important. Using high quality cocoa powder and chocolate will make or break your brownies. We love Rodelle cocoa powder!
• Under bake them: Remember that baked goods continue to cook as they cool, so you’ll want to take the brownies out when they’re slightly underdone to get that quintessential fudgy texture.

Alrighty, my loves, that’s it for today. We hope you enjoy these decadent pretzel brownies just as much as we do!
