Steps:
- In heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup and butter. Bring just to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling, without stirring, at a moderate-steady rate for 4 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in milk. Return to the heat. Reduce to medium-low; cook and stir until a candy thermometer reads 245 (firm ball stage). Keep warm.
- Pour 1 cup caramel into a 1 cup glass measuring cup. Quickly dip each pretzel halfway into caramel. Allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper lined baking sheets; let stand until hardened.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup, melt white candy coating. Dip half of the caramel-coated pretzels into coating. Melt milk chocolate coating; dip remaining pretzels.
- Drizzle white coated pretzels with milk chocolate coating; drizzle milk chocolate coated pretzels with white coating. Sprinkle with walnuts if desired. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Put the pecan halves on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake, shaking the sheet once halfway through, until lightly toasted, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a plate to cool.
- Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Arrange the pretzels neatly on the baking sheet, then top each pretzel with an unwrapped caramel. Bake until the caramels soften (but are definitely not melting), 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently press a pecan half onto each caramel, just enough for the caramel to fill the pretzel. Set aside to cool completely.
- Remove the cooled pretzel/caramels from the baking sheet. Spoon 24 small dollops (1 1/2-teaspoon helpings) of the melted chocolate all over the baking sheet, then lightly drop a pretzel onto the middle of each dollop, making sure the pretzel is centered. Allow them to cool completely before serving (you can hasten this along in the fridge).
Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the sugar from burning.
- Stir the sugar mixture constantly to prevent it from crystallizing.
- Once the sugar has melted, add the butter and cream and stir until combined.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until thickened.
- Dip the pretzel sticks in the caramel sauce and place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
- Allow the pretzels to cool and harden before serving.
Conclusion:
These caramel pretzel sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover pretzels. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these delicious treats that are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
