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.
