Get creative! Not only can you twist these pretzels into your
initials or a heart-shape but you can sprinkle different spices on the
outside.
Try a cinnamon pretzel or an exotic
cardamon pretzel. Parmesan cheese, toasted onion or bacon bits
sprinkled on top and pressed into the dough would be tasty as well.
Pretzel initials make a great party favor. Put the person's initials down on their plate as an edible place card.

A cookie sheet
A ridged spatula for lifting

Open the tube by smacking it on the edge of the counter. This is Belle's favorite part!
Pull the dough out and break off a piece. Shape it into a 1/2 inch roll then twist and turn it into whatever shape you want.
