- Assemble: Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the crushed pretzels in the pan.
- Add Chocolate: Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the caramel layer and allow them to melt. Once melted, spread the chocolate evenly over the caramel layer using a spatula.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until the bars are firm.

Notes
