Mt sweet neighbor friend called and invited me over earlier. One of her daughters was home from college for the weekend. They were making soft pretzels. Oh my gosh do I love these homemade soft pretzels. I have the recipe now and will be trying them eventually. She had cream cheese for a dip as well as cheese. I tried both and oh my goodness were they ever good. So soft as they were right out of the oven. I could easily eat too many of these. Do you like soft pretzels? Photo is mine.

I love soft pretzels and this one in the photo seems delicious. I was saying yesterday to my husband that I want to make soft pretzels.

@CarolDM You just have to get the feel of the microwave time. On mine I use about 25 seconds.

I don't think I have seen a soft pretzel or maybe I thought it was a roll. Should really get around to trying one

Not eaten them, yet, but after this post, I'd like to try some. Looks yummy! I've not noticed them at Safeway or other places.

@CarolDM Ok. Just got to find a store for them. Weather permitting, shopping tomorrow, so, going to stop at a bakery, for macarons and will look for soft pretzels.

I do but I’ve never tried a home made one. I buy from this pretzel store called Auntie Anne’s and they’re very delicious.

I've made soft pretzels a couple of times but they disappear so fast I don't want to keep making them. Pretty and I would be bigger than we already are!

@CarolDM I have to do that when I'm baking bread. The doctor hates me to eat that. *shrug*

It would be one of those items to bake on rare occasions for sure.
