Pretzels have long been a beloved snack in Germany and across Europe, originally sold fresh from street carts and bakeries. Their deep brown crust and distinctive shape come from a traditional lye bath that gives them their iconic flavor and sheen. This homemade version keeps that chewy texture while pairing it with a smoky, creamy cheese sauce inspired by comfort food staples. They're ideal for sharing during casual gatherings, game nights, or a weekend baking project. Fresh from the oven, they offer both nostalgia and warmth.
