Updated: These made yummy, yummy pretzel cheese logs. Next time I'll make pizza logs by coating the cheese in tomato sauce; and next time I plan on freezing it beforehand so it doesn't leak out the ends like it did with this batch. I used 3/4 cup white flour and 3/4 cup whole wheat flour and salted with kosher salt-- I skipped the melted butter and just baked with the salt on.

    I used my bread machine, and skipped the soda water. I brushed the pretzels with egg white before baking, and they were devine. I ate 5 before they cooled off. Needless to say, I loved them! I always dip them in mustard, and it was fabulous.

    I divided this recipe in two, one for pretzels and the other for hot dog "buns". Both ways came out very nicely. I wouldn't recommend dipping the dough in soda water, it causes the dough to stick hard to the "greased" sheets. I would recommend just brushing them with the soda-water once they are on the pan. I would also recommend letting the dough rise for the first time at least an hour. It made a difference in the final size. Very good flavor nonetheless and the buns were yummy with the hot dogs. Thanks!!

    this worked well in my bread machine. i had a little difficulty rolling out the pretzels, but that's because i'm new to this whole stay-at-home thing and haven't cooked before.
