Butterscotch Pretzels

A favorite from childhoods spanning the 80’s and 90’s. We always made ours during the holiday season. I think we made them with the infamous spritzer cookies with red hots and green sprinkles. When my mom would pull out the box for the spritzer mold and waxed paper I knew it was officially the holidays. I can almost hear Bing Crosby on that translucent blue cassette tape now.

BUTTERSCOTCH PRETZELS

2.5 c. pretzels

1 c. butterscotch chips

Melt chips over a double boiler until it is soft and swirlable. Add pretzels and stir. Break some up or leave them whole. This is your kitchen. Dump out onto waxed paper and allow to cool. May want to separate them into bundles or stacks otherwise it is just one big pretzel pack.
