These no-bake salted caramel pretzel cheesecake bars combine a crunchy, buttery pretzel crust with creamy cheesecake filling and a swirl of salted caramel. It’s the perfect mix of sweet and salty in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed pretzels
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup salted caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling)
  • sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix crushed pretzels, melted butter, and brown sugar until the texture resembles wet sand.
  2. Press the pretzel mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9 inch pan. Chill in the refrigerator while you make the filling.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
  5. Drizzle in the salted caramel sauce and lightly swirl for a marbled look.
  6. Spread the filling over the chilled crust, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Before serving, drizzle with extra caramel sauce and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

Notes

  • For best texture, let the salted caramel pretzel cheesecake bars chill overnight.
  • Use flaky sea salt to finish for extra flavor on your salted caramel pretzel cheesecake.
  • If you prefer a lighter or vegan option for your salted caramel pretzel cheesecake, try coconut cream and dairy-free cream cheese.
