Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 whole eggs
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce
• 1 cup pretzels, crushed

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a mini muffin tin thoroughly to prevent sticking.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Add the cocoa powder, flour, salt, vanilla extract, and eggs to the sugar mixture. Mix until a smooth batter forms with no lumps.
4. Carefully spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup halfway to allow room for the toppings.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove the tin from the oven but keep the oven on.
6. Using the back of a small spoon, gently press an indentation into the center of each brownie bite to create a small well.
7. Fill each indentation with the caramel sauce, allowing it to settle into the brownie.
8. Sprinkle crushed pretzels over the caramel-topped brownies, pressing lightly to adhere them.
9. Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the edges are firm and the pretzels are slightly toasted.
10. Remove from the oven and let the brownie bites cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
