Salted caramel pretzel sundaes are the answer to…well, many of life’s questions, but any occasion when you need a fabulous dessert but you don’t have time/energy to bake, or you want to concentrate all your cooking efforts on the main dish. (Like on an upcoming holiday, perhaps? On leftovers night when the whole family is still around but the pie got finished at breakfast? <–just my family?)
So: open three containers. Don’t be stingy with the caramel or the pretzels. Don’t be afraid to add more caramel to the bottom of your sundae, if necessary. It’s also acceptable to use a pretzel as a spoon.
…and then the girls and I ate the model sundae after the pictures were done. Before 9 am. #sorrynotsorry

Notes
I love Trader Joe’s Fleur de Sel Caramel Sauce. If you want to make your own, I’ve made this recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction and can highly recommend it! (Additional ingredients needed: sugar, butter, heavy cream, and salt. When I made this, I used salted butter so I used half the amount of salt in the recipe.) You can make it in advance and just warm it up again, so this can stay a super easy dessert to pull off!
