FAT-FREE SOFT PRETZELS
Years ago my daughter brought this recipe home from school to do as a project. I just came across it again and couldn't help but remember the fun she had making it (needed a bit of help with the boiling water and oven). They turned out good too, including the ones she made with silly shapes.

Steps:
- Dissolve the yeast in the 1/8 c warm water (use a large bowl).
- Stir in the 1 1/3 c warm water and brown sugar.
- Slowly mix in the flour.
- Knead dough (using extra flour for the board and your hands) until it is stretchy and smooth (not sticky).
- Grease two large cookie sheets.
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
- Fill a 2-3 quart saucepan half full of water.
- Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda for every cup of water.
- Bring to a boil.
- Talk a golf-ball size piece of dough and roll into a rope as thich as your thumb.
- Bend into a U-shape, cross ends, twist crossed ends making a full turn, then fold the ends back toward the middle of the U.
- Press ends into dough firmly.
- Should be the familiar pretzel shape.
- Other shapes (including candy cane shapes for Christmas) also work.
- Lower pretzel in boiling water for 30 seconds, remove from water (getting rid of any excess water) and place on greased cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle with coarse or kosher salt.
- Repeat until all the dough has been used.
- Bake for 8 minutes or until golden.
