- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel bits with the heavy cream and heat in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth.
- Pour the melted caramel over the pretzels, ensuring an even spread.
- Drizzle the remaining melted chocolate over the caramel layer and use a toothpick to create a marbled effect if desired.
- While the bark is still soft, sprinkle sea salt over the top.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until the bark is fully hardened.
- Once chilled, break the bark into uneven chunks or cut into uniform pieces.
