GIANT SOFT PRETZELS
These are so yummy! Even if a bit messy to make. You can also shape the pretzels into letters or numbers. Kids love to do that. You can also brush with butter after you take the out of the oven and sprinkle cinnamon sugar over them. My Kids love them that way.

Steps:
- 1. Place first 4 ingredients in order listed into mixer with dough hook or bread machine according to manufacturer. Select dough setting & check to see if water or more flour is needed as mixing begins. It should turn into a ball, slightly sticky but holding shape to itself. While this process is taking place, get a large pot of water with 1/2 cup baking soda dissolved in it, it should be able to hold two pretzels at a time.
- 2. When cycle is completed turn dough onto floured surface. Divide dough into eight balls. Roll each into 20" (inch) rope; form into a traditional pretzel shape and set aside on sprayed wax paper.
- 3. Drop two pretzels @ a time into water; boil for 10-15 seconds. Remove & drain on side towels.
- 4. Place pretzels on greased baking sheets. Bake @ 425F degrees for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and press into a salt that has been spread onto a plate. Then enjoy
Tips:
- To make the perfect pretzel dough, use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients accurately. This will ensure that the dough comes together correctly and has the right consistency.
- When you are boiling the pretzels, make sure that the water is simmering, not boiling. If the water is boiling too vigorously, it will cook the pretzels too quickly and they will not have the chewy texture that you are looking for.
- After you have boiled the pretzels, make sure to drain them well on a wire rack. This will help to remove excess water and prevent the pretzels from becoming soggy.
- Before you bake the pretzels, brush them with a beaten egg. This will help to give them a golden brown color and a shiny crust.
- Serve the pretzels warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include mustard, cheese sauce, or beer cheese.
Conclusion:
These giant soft pretzels are the perfect game day snack or party food. They are easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you are looking for a delicious and satisfying snack, give these pretzels a try!
