Instructions
Pretzel Base
Preheat your oven to 180/160C Fan, and get your 12 cupcake/muffin cases ready. I used Iced Jems regular baking cups!
Blitz your pretzels down to a fine crumb, and mix in the melted butter.
Split between the 12 cases, and press down firmly.
Cupcakes
Beat together your butter and sugar until light and fluffy, and add in your flour and eggs and beat again.
Split between the 12 cases, and bake in the oven for 18-22 minutes, until they're baked through!
Once they are baked, leave to cool fully on a wire rack.
Decoration
Core out the centres of the cupcakes slightly, and fill with a delicious salted caramel sauce.
Beat together your unsalted butter (it's best at room temperature) for a couple of minutes on its own.
Add in the icing sugar 1/3 at a time, beating fully in-between each addition.
Add in your salted caramel sauce and beat until smooth and delicious!
Pipe onto your cupcakes with your favourite piping tip.
Pop two pretzels on to each cupcake and sprinkle on some crushed pretzel dust!
Notes
This recipe was inspired by the wonderful Cupcake Jemma!
These will last for 3 days, at room temperature!
I used my
homemade caramel sauce
with a smidge more salt in, but shop bought stuff will work fine too!
The Pretzel base is optional, but it gives the cupcakes more crunch or more pretzel!
Yes, the pretzels will soften eventually, but it doesn't matter. Eat them fresh!
I used salted caramel flavour festive pretzels from Sainsburys, but any will do!
You can buy the cupcake cases from Iced Jems
