“I made these for the super bowl a few weeks ago. I can’t believe how easy these were to make! I’ve tried many other pretzel recipes and I hate how much butter they call for or the brown sugar. But we loved loved these that I’m making them for our Daytona 500 p” — a cook
“I was craving pretzels today and discovered this recipe. The recipe was very easy to follow. And they came out amazing. I made a couple of them with sesame seeds on top. And a couple with everything but bagel topping from Trader Joe’s. All delicious!” — a cook
