Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Microwave the chocolate for about 2 minutes, stirring every 15 seconds until completely melted.

Pour the melted chocolate onto the parchment-lined cookie sheet and spread it out evenly.

Sprinkle about 1/4 of a 1 lb package of mini twist pretzels over the melted chocolate, pressing them down gently.

Unwrap 11 oz of craft caramels and place them in another microwave-safe dish with 2 tbsp of water.

Microwave the caramels for about 1.5 minutes in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.

Pour the melted caramel over the pretzels and chocolate, spreading it out to cover everything.

Measure out 4 oz of remaining semi-sweet chocolate and add 1/2 tsp of coconut oil to it.

Melt the remaining chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.

Sprinkle sea salt over the caramel layer before pouring the melted chocolate on top.

Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the caramel and pretzels, adding more sea salt on top if desired.

Refrigerate until set completely, about 30 minutes.
