I just made these with my 9 year old son. They were very easy and quick (plus rising. My son was excited to try out his pretzel forming techniques that he picked up from watching the employees at the mall.

I love that they were crispy crunchy on the outside and chewy and soft on the inside. Perfect.

Oh- and we used soy milk and margarine and they turned out perfect!

This recipe is perfect - I couldn't tell the difference (except I didn't have caramel sauce on hand. Since we live over a mile high, we had to add a little more flour to knead the dough. It was too tacky to knead otherwise.

I am a novice breadbaker and these turn out perfectly for me everytime!! My daughter and husband love them and we have stopped spending big bucks at the mall for soft pretzels. I have made them at playdates and for after school treats and they are always a big hit. We have added cheese and jalopeno to the dough and that is great as well. You can flavor the dough with anything you like. I noticed that i get the golden brown color from dipping the uncooked dough into the baking soda soloution prior to baking. You really have to dunk the raw dough into this solution to get that pretty color and finish. The almost-famous recipes in the magazine are always the best!! I look for them in every issue.

I found this recipe and was so excited to try it. I live in the middle of nowhere, the nearest mall is 150 miles away. My children and I love the Auntie Annies Soft Pretzels at the Mall and this is almost spot on. The kids say all I have to do now is set up shopping in the house and we have it made. These are simple to make and are a great evening or afternoon snack. The kids do not care for mustard, but a good suggestion for them is to just heat up some nacho cheese sauce for dip. Just plain is fine too.

I saw this recipe in the Feb/March issue of FN Magazine claiming to be the replica of Auntie Anne's, so I made these for the first time "just for fun" because I love Auntie Anne's pretzels.....and they turned out fantastic. I ran out of white flour and had to use about 1/4 c of whole wheat flour but they still turned out great. Sweet, salty and buttery just like the originals. And the sauce was so simple and so good! I can't wait to make these again, with completely white flour.
