    Title: Soft Pretzel Bites
    Categories: Breads, Cheese, Dairy
    Yield: 32 Bites

    Cooking spray
    16 1/3 oz Can refrigerated biscuit
    - dough
    4 c Water
    1/4 c Baking soda
    1 lg Egg; beaten
    Coarse salt
    2 tb Butter
    2 tb A-P flour
    1 c Milk
    2 c Cheddar
    Coarse salt
    Fresh ground black pepper
    pn Cayenne pepper

    Set oven @ 425ºF/218ºC.

    Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spray
    with cooking spray.

    MAKE THE PRETZELS: Quarter each biscuit, then roll each
    piece into a ball. Using a knife, carve an X into each
    ball. In a medium saucepan, combine water and baking
    soda. Bring to boil then reduce to a simmer. Add balls
    and cook for 30 seconds. (The dough will float to top.)
    Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to baking
    sheet, making sure the pretzels aren't touching. (Don't
    worry if the dough looks messy here! They'll completely
    transform in the oven.) Brush beaten egg over each
    pretzel, then sprinkle with coarse salt.

    Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.

    MEANWHILE, MAKE CHEESE SAUCE: Melt butter in a small
    saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1
    minute. Stir in milk and bring to a simmer. When milk
    begins to thicken, stir in cheese, whisking constantly
    until sauce is smooth. Season to taste with salt,
    pepper, and cayenne. Serve with the pretzels.
