To those who have asked, nope, I don't mind sharing at all! Here you go:
1 tbl. Yeast
1.5 cups warm water
1 tsp. salt
1 tbl. sugar
4 cups flour
1 egg, beaten
course salt
Measure warm water into large mixing bowl.
Sprinkle yeast into water and stir until it looks "soft"
Add salt, sugar and flour
Mix and knead dough
Prepare surface for working. I usually put down wax paper and flour (to help the dough not stick to everything).
Give everyone a lump of dough to work with and have them twist it into shapes, letters, numbers, etc.
Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray and place completed pretzel shapes on the cookie sheet. Leave some space as the pretzels will rise as they cook.
Brush pretzels with the beaten egg and sprinkle with course salt. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until they are a nice golden brown.
Enjoy!

Well, it looks like MG will have something good to cook for our snacks next weekend. (remember, I don't cook so that is why I say MG will be making the pretzels)
Have you ever told the story when you were a camp counselor? I would love to hear about it someday.
Thanks! i love pretzels!
Oh I love love love soft pretzels! Yum!
Pretzel?!! Yum! Looks like a fun thing to make with Sydney. Thanks!
Hmmm, it never occurred to me that I could make pretzels at home. Well, look out, Caroline, we're going to be trying a new recipe! I will don my Julia Child apron and get right to work!
Caroline's MG
Caroline: These are fun and easy to make but pleas remember, it's a recipie geared for kids so don't expect Auntie Anne's Professional Pretzels or anything. Just fun and fun to eat! :)
Audra: You are welcome!
Brenda: Any time!
Patti_Cake: Your little one would love to make them - it's like working with playdoh but then she can eat them! :)
Rainbow Momma: have fun!
MG: Don't expect perfection but do expect to have fun! :) Good luck!
