Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the mini pretzel twists evenly over the parchment.
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the packed light brown sugar, light corn syrup, and salt. Bring to a gentle boil while stirring constantly for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda until thoroughly combined. Pour the bubbling toffee over the pretzels, tossing them until well coated. If using pecans, sprinkle them on top.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, remembering to stir halfway through to ensure even toasting. Allow the pretzels to cool completely before breaking them into pieces.
