Vegan Dark Chocolate Pretzel Pecan Pie

This pie makes your whole house smell divine. The brown sugar creates a caramel like flavor and

makes a caramel pretzel crust situation. Sweet and salty desserts are my favorite desserts. I don’t really love anything so sweet and rich that you feel like you can’t finish it. I think making desserts salty creates balance. So I can eat more, ya know!
