Motherload Pretzels

Kenny loves pretzels.  I love chocolate and caramel.  Put them together and you have one very happy couple.  This is a very functional marriage we have.

 Motherload Pretzels 
1 package (10 ounces) pretzel rods 
1 package (14 ounces) caramels 
1 T fat-free evaporated milk 
1 1/4 C semisweet chocolate chips 
1 C + 2 T butterscotch chips 
2/3 C milk chocolate toffee bits 
1/4 C chopped walnuts, toasted

With a sharp knife, cut pretzel rods in half; set aside. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt caramels with milk. In a large shallow bowl, combine the chips, toffee bits and walnuts. Pour caramel mixture into a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Dip the cut end of each pretzel piece two-thirds of the way into caramel mixture (reheat in microwave if mixture becomes too thick for dipping). Allow excess caramel to drip off, then roll pretzels in the chip mixture. Place on waxed paper until set. Store in an airtight container. Adapted from Taste of Home.

And now we're off to see the Hunger Games!!  I am super excited.  I was geared up to go by myself since Kenny isn't the fan that I am.  But he's letting me drag him along, bless his heart.  I am assuming it's because I promised P'Squetti's for dinner.

Happy weekend!
