Peanut Butter Pretzel Tart with Caramel Drizzle

Peanut Butter Pretzel Tart with Caramel Drizzle has a really easy to make salty pretzel crust and a luscious peanut butter filling. The caramel drizzle on top is extra special and makes this tart so irresistible!

It’s time to get back to business! Serious baking business! Peanut butter cream on top of a pretzel crust. That’s what kind of business I mean!
 
My dear friend Ilaria invited me over for pizza last night. She’s from Bari, Italy. She makes AMAZING pizza. No matter what I’m doing, when she calls for us to come by for pizza, I’m there! Ilaria always tells me NOT to bring any thing. I know she’s lying and wants me to bake a cake.
 
I was counting down the minutes until we were going to her house. Kept watching the clock. To make the time go quicker, I threw this fun dessert together. Luca and I go to the library almost every week. As I was walking by the magazines in the front of the library,  the February issue of Rachel Ray Magazine caught my eye!  There was Rachel eating a huge burger on the cover. I was intrigued and had to read more and then this yumminess caught my eye. The next think you know, I was making it. Funny how cravings work like that.

It is very easy to make. Let me repeat it: VERY EASY.

The crust is made with PRETZELS!!! It’s like a candy bar. An irresistible low-cal candy bar. I’m kidding on the low-cal. It does have a stick of butter in the crust and whipped cream in the filling.

What ingredients do you need to make a peanut butter pretzel tart with caramel drizzle? 

It’s really simple to put together. Here is all you need to make this delicious tart!

For the pretzel crust:

  • salted pretzel sticks or pretzels
  • brown sugar
  •  salt
  • unsalted butter

For the peanut butter filling:

  • cream cheese
  •  peanut butter
  • heavy cream
  •  pure vanilla extract
  •  granulated sugar

 

Preheat the oven to 350°. Using a food processor, finely grind the pretzels, 1/4 cup brown sugar.

Transfer to a bowl, then stir in the melted butter.

Press evenly over the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.

Bake until light brown around the edges, about 18 minutes. Let cool on a rack.

Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, peanut butter and softened butter at medium-high speed until fluffy, about 1 minute.

Beat in the remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar.

In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with the vanilla until soft peaks form.

Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture.

Doesn’t this look so good! It almost didn’t make it into the tart!

With a spatula spread this gorgeous peanut butter mixture in the tart shell.

Cover with plastic wrap, then refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours. I popped the bottom out of the sides of the tart pan. I left it the bottom on the tart pan and it was very messy when cutting. But DELICIOUS! All the salty yumminess from the pretzels mixed with the peanut butter/whipped cream mixture. Crazy GOOD.

I used Dulce de Leche and drizzled it on top. If you want to use Rachel’s caramel recipe to drizzle on, here it is:
Caramel Drizzle
In a small, heavy skillet, bring the granulated sugar and 3 tablespoons water to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved (wash down any sugar crystals from the sides with a wet pastry brush). Boil without stirring, but swirling the pan occasionally, until golden-brown, about 5 minutes. Let cool for 2 minutes, then whisk in the chilled butter, the remaining 1/4 cup heavy cream and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer the caramel to a bowl and let cool completely. Rewarm gently before drizzling over the sliced tart; serve the remainder on the side.

    There are no rules for fighting cancer. There are no rules for your content on your blog. In Brighton Beach Memoirs, Neil Simon has the character Eugene speak a wonderful monologue about his family and every time he says "cancer" he whispers it. Nobody talked about it. Don't whisper.

    And keep baking. The sweet and salty and your artistry are spun gold.

    I was raised the same way, to keep things a secret. My mama looked upset when I told her that I told the whole world about what was going on with me! She thought I had just told you. I'm so glad you shared your feelings with everyone. It's so great for you to get it all out. Everyone loves and supports you. 🙂

    I just adore how you and Luca go to the library together, so sweet. You truly are an incredible mother to your kids.

    That tart looks insane!! But insane is a very good thing according to me. I love pretzels and the crust is just calling my name. Actually the whole thing is! I wish you could bake for me everyday.

    Congratulations on Top 9! This looks amazing. The pretzels just take it over the top. And that dulce de leche…oh goodness.

    I love pretzel cruts, and the peanut butter filling in this sounds to die for! When you get a chance, stop by and pick up a couple of awards at my blog:)

    I was eying up this recipe the other day while flipping through my magazines. This looks great and congrats on the Top 9!
    And I say its your blog – you talk about whatever you need to talk about. People will read if they want to or wont – but this is yours and those of us that <3 you even if you wrote about boogers and french fries would still be here to support you. 🙂

    Sweet, salty, and lovely! I understand why the filling almost didn't make it to the tart!
