Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 9 ounces chocolate covered pretzels (divided)
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter (cooled)

  • 3/4 teaspoon coarse salt

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Reserve 8 pretzels for garnish.

  • Step 2: Place remaining pretzels in a food processor and process until chopped - this will give you about 1 3/4 cup chopped pretzels. Add melted/cooled butter to the food processor and pulse until the crumbs hold together.

  • Step 3: Press pretzel butter mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9 inch deep dish pie plate. Freeze until set, about 20 minutes.

  • Step 4: Scoop 2/3 of the ice cream into balls and arrange in the pie crest. Press down on the ice cream with the back of a spoon and smooth the top.

  • Step 5: Microwave the caramel topping in 15 second intervals until pourable. Drizzle half of the caramel topping over the ice cream. Repeat ice cream and caramel layers.

  • Step 6: Freeze until firm, about 4 hours. Let pie stand at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges, then sprinkle salt and chocolate chips/sprinkles over top. Garnish with reserved pretzels and serve immediately.
