with a baking mat or parchment paper and set

yeast mixture over top. Knead with break hook in
your mixer or by hand for approximately 5 minutes.

Separate dough into 6-8 sections. Roll dough into
ropes about 15-20 inches long and 1 inch thick. Cut
with scissors into 1 and 1/2 to 2 inch pieces. Then
cut a t or x on the top of the pretzel with scissors.

In a large pan bring 3 quarts of water and 3/4 cup
baking soda to a boil. Once water is boiling place
about 8 pieces of dough into the water for about
30 seconds. Remove with slotted spoon and place
pretzel bites onto baking sheet. Brush dough
lightly with egg and sprinkle salt on top.

Bake for 8-10 minutes. You can turn the oven to broil
the last minute to brown the tops. Remove pretzel
bites to a cooling rack and brush tops with melted
butter. Enjoy with cheese sauce.
