Oh goodnight! I am going to gain 900lbs if I keep reading your blog! I have a whole bowl full of the cream left over from the mousse from yesterday. I haven't been able to stay out of it all day. A spoonful here, a spoonful there. Pairing with puff pastry and raspberries sounds absolutely DIVINE!February 18, 2010 – 11:43 pm
You and your husband grow the most wonderful raspberries. I am so lucky to live close to that patch. Thanks for sharing your recipe and garden!February 18, 2010 – 9:36 pm  Years ago . . . many moons ago, as a new Bride, I searched the world over for the “perfect waffle recipe.” I found it!

Thank you sweet sister, I love you too! 
Hey sis…I am sitting in the kitchen making these waffles with the boys and reminiscing about summers at Jonna’s and eating her homemade waffles with huckleberry syrup. It is one of my best memories! thanks for being my sister…I love you!November 28, 2011 – 5:23 pm 
My family of 6 LOVES waffles! Anyone ever try Buttermilk syrup? My kids won’t have anything else on it. Kids who won’t eat syrup will eat this on their waffles.March 28, 2010 – 2:58 pm 
I have to make these asap – everyone in my house loves waffles except my son, who actually likes waffles but not syrup…. so I am excited to try it with the “dip” which I’m sure he’ll love, but the link is broken. I searched “dip” but it didn’t come up. Where can I find it?March 23, 2010 – 1:27 pm
Hi Jackie, Just mix the vanilla in with the milk and the egg yolks. I mix these all together with a fork until blended then add it.
Hi Where is the vanilla incorporated into this recipe.February 24, 2010 – 3:23 pm
Can't wait to try this recipe. I hope I can make them look as good as yours also.February 18, 2010 – 7:13 pm
MMMMM Those look so good. Bridger saw this and he said "Oh, mom lets make them." I would love to but first I have to buy a waffle maker. I can't believe that I don't have one!!! Something else to add to the list.February 18, 2010 – 2:31 pm  In this house, we have this yummy chicken quite often. It’s fast and easy to make. It’s a main dish fit for a king.

Hi Jonna, It’s me again! I clicked on the recipe to make tonight…it sounds scrumptios…but it said it was a broken link. If you get it working again will you let me know! tHANKS Brooke
I've been making (and loving) this recipe for a while, but I never knew it was a Lion House recipe. I love your speedy version. I'll have to try that!!February 18, 2010 – 3:56 am
WOW, this looks scrumptious and wrapped in that tortillas really makes my salivary glands start pumping. You are a genius and I've been wondering WHY ON EARTH YOU MOVED AWAY – imagine the possibilities if you were still my next door neighbor . . .a taste-testing kitchen right outside your back door!

Fast, easy and delicious…it meet my cirteria for a week night meal.  ~ HAPPY VALENTINES DAY ~ It’s not often that I make a Chocolate Dessert for my husband. He really doesn’t care for Chocolate! In my mind, Valentines Day is not Valentines Day without a little Chocolate. This light airy creamy dessert is one that he actually enjoys. This is the perfect treat after a big meal,…
Kathy this should be enough for 4 servings. 
How many servings does this make? (normal size people)
Oh my stars! Just made this for dessert and it is HEAVEN in a bowl! Goodness that was yummy! Thank you so much!February 18, 2010 – 1:41 am
I could spend all day just looking at your blog. I am pretty sure I have gained weight looking at the pix=)February 16, 2010 – 5:32 am
Definitely looks heavenly!!February 16, 2010 – 2:41 am
Oh mom, that looks delicious. I will have to give that a try soon. I love the heartshaped ramicans (sp) as well. You are just adorable.February 15, 2010 – 11:05 pm

What a great idea! I love how simple they are but how completely decadent they sound!August 29, 2012 – 9:20 am 
I used this recipe for the marshmallow frosting for my smores cupcake. it’s way better than the marshmallow fluff you buy in the store. It also torches nicely just so you know.June 24, 2012 – 9:58 am
Hi Tara, You don’t have to beat the egg whites before adding to the Cake recipe. 
This looks delicious do we have to beat the egg whites before putting them in?January 21, 2012 – 5:15 pm
Thank you Lauri! 
Seriously…..you have me going out in the -22 weather to get ingredients, now that’s just plain sad! Love your blog! YUMJanuary 19, 2012 – 9:55 am 
I love this recipe. The contrast between the red cupcakes and the glossy Marshmallow is captivating. However, the use of unpasteurized egg whites scares me. According to the recipe, they are never cooked or heated in anyway. Regards, 
I just wish with all my heart we could get huckleberries here! THey are my favorite fruit and berry and yet I have never taste one fresh before in my life! I know every place within a 80 mile radius that can get jam or preserves, and even a place that can get taffy, but no fruit. THe exciting thing, is I just got booked for a wedding in Montana next July.. I am HOPING that it will still be season for huckleberries then?? I want to see them in perosn, bring them home, eat them, have milkshakes, pies, EVERYTHING i can find if I can! I hope!September 25, 2011 – 6:57 pm 
I made these for a True Blood party I went to a couple weeks ago. Complete hit! They were sooo perfect for it! I fell in love with the marshmallow frosting – I had to stop eating it to put it on the cupcakes! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=6080470&l=1db1a71f2d&id=534618221 Thank you for the wonderful ideas!! -CassieJune 23, 2010 – 12:48 pm

My family would be all over this.
mmmmmmmmm…THANKS!February 10, 2010 – 12:00 am  Do you need a perfect snack for the big game? These Pretzel bites will hit the spot for sure. You can make a combination of Parmesan bites with a Cheese dip or Cinnamon and Sugar bites with a Vanilla glaze for dipping. I’ve finally used up my supply of Rhodes Roll dough . . . until… 
I should have read the comments first – I found the answer – thanks for sharing this. jackieFebruary 22, 2013 – 11:46 am
The pretzel bites looks so good – I want to make a batch to take to my buddies at our scrapbooking crop tomorrow. I could only find the Rhodes dinner rolls not the Texas size. Should i just cut them in half? HELP! JackieFebruary 22, 2013 – 11:37 am 
I just made both the parmesan and the cinnamon sugar varieties. Oh my word…I cannot decide which is yummier! I used the Rhodes rolls regular size, since they didn’t have the Texas size. I just cut them in half instead of fourths and it worked fine. I did have to bake them almost 25 minutes at 375 degrees to get them to brown. They are delish and now I’m ready for the Super Bowl. Thanks for posting!February 3, 2013 – 2:49 pm 
I’m sure like all the rest of your fans they are saying, wow these look awesome! I’m making them for Super Bowl weekend with the boys! CheersFebruary 1, 2013 – 1:18 pm 
love your recepiesJanuary 22, 2013 – 2:23 pm 
So I couldn’t find the Rhodes brand, plus I like to make things from scratch, so I incorporated your recipe with the recipe from http://leecooks.blogspot.com/2012/02/homemade-pretzels.html?m=1 
I’m making these a little ahead of time, for a get together tonight. What is the longest they can rise and turn out right? i don’t want to make them too early but i don’t want them to rise too long either.January 13, 2013 – 3:51 pm 
Hi Jo, With the frozen (Rhodes roll dough – found in the freezer section of our grocery stores) you just thaw it-shape it- and let the balls of dough double in size. JonnaJanuary 10, 2013 – 5:40 pm 
Hi, I’m a little confused. I don’t have frozen bread dough where I am, so I looked up your pretzel dough recipe. With this one, you have to let it double in size but that one you don’t? And what if I make them with pizza dough.. Would I have let that double in size first? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance. (sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m not much of a baker)January 9, 2013 – 5:34 pm 
I thought the whole point of making pretzels was the baking soda in the water. Did I mess that in your recipe?January 5, 2013 – 11:39 pm
Hi Tracy, These pretzel bites are best eaten the day you make them. They can be re-heated, but just won’t have the same punch! JonnaDecember 23, 2012 – 1:37 pm 
I made these a few months ago and they were great! I want to make them for a party so I need to do as much prep as i can…is it better to make them fully and reheat or can I boil than then cook a few hours later?December 22, 2012 – 8:56 pm 
Just made these for an appetizer for Thanksgiving. I hope they last overnight. I just saw your comment that they are better served the same day as baked. I agree with another commenter who said they turned out much larger than I expected. When you called these “bites” I expected something bite-sized. These are at least 2-3 bites in size. More like mini-rolls. They turned out fantastic (both parmesan and cinnamon-sugar). Luckily, they are also SUPER easy so if they don’t taste as great tomorrow morning, I will whip up another batch. 
I am making these tonight and I have waited 45 minutes and the dough does not look double in size to me??!!November 17, 2012 – 5:22 pm
Hi Jessica…..Yes it will work! 
Do you think the rhodes bread dough would work the same as the rolls?November 8, 2012 – 9:13 pm
Hi Jill, The only thing I can think of is that you left them in the water a bit too long. JonnaNovember 5, 2012 – 7:08 pm 
I made these pretzel bites, the first time they were perfect and awesome, so delicious!!!! Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, they are not working. What happened? They turn out doughy (almost like snot) in the middle and don’t plump back in the oven. I am lost, not sure what I am doing wrong. Any suggestions? I don’t add salt to the water, I grease my cookie sheets for them to raise, I let them double in size, bake at the normal temp and for the recommended time.November 5, 2012 – 4:36 pm 
I’m thinking of making these soon because I LOVE soft pretzels, and have never made them before but wanted to try the bite size first. I was wondering though, could I make a variation of half whole wheat and half all purpose flour? Or that wouldn’t work? I’m fine with sticking to all purpose, but if I can use whole wheat, I think that’d be really great!November 5, 2012 – 1:35 am
Hi Victoria, Cover them with a clean kitchen towel, or even saran wrap and let the balls of dough double in size….while sitting on your countertop. JonnaOctober 18, 2012 – 8:49 am 
This might be a silly question, but I’m new to any kind of cooking and I just need some sort of clarification. When you’re letting the bites rise (double in size) are you doing that by putting them until the oven or just letting them sit?October 17, 2012 – 11:46 pm 
Forgot to explain they are found in the Bakery dept at Publics. Or you can ask for frozen if not making right away.October 8, 2012 – 7:10 pm 
These are just perfect with raw pizza dough in Publics , find them or ask for them , thee are easy and fun and and the fought keeps in the frezzee for weeks. Enjoy…October 8, 2012 – 7:04 pm 
Love this pretzel recipe! Your blog is awesome!!October 8, 2012 – 1:04 pm 
These were seriously amazing! I made these for a Sunday afternoon snack and couldn’t stop eating them! I no longer need to go to the Mall and get Auntie Anne’s pretzels I can just make these at a way cheaper price!October 7, 2012 – 4:21 pm 
These look amazing!! I can’t wait to make them! Thanks for sharing
Hi Tami, These are best eaten the same day you bake them. 
How long will the pretzel bites keep? Thinking about making these as giftsSeptember 23, 2012 – 9:28 am
Hi Michele, It’s hard for me to know the answer to that question, without seeing your pizza dough. I’m sure if it’s a homemade pizza dough with a lot of stretch to it, it will probably work fine. JonnaSeptember 22, 2012 – 1:46 pm 
Question…… can you use pizza dough for the bitesSeptember 22, 2012 – 12:59 pm 
These are not helping with my Weight Watchers. haha!! My 7 year old is weird. She didn’t like them?! The real test will be when my husband gets home from work. My 2 year old liked them though. I will make them again. But I will have to hide them from me. (if that’s even possible) LOLSeptember 17, 2012 – 1:22 pm
Hi Kate, Oh gee….try again. It’s the in and out of the bath that makes them chewy like a pretzel. If you don’t do this, they will still be good, but more like little rolls. 
I tried these this morning and bombed on the recipe 
These are amazing!! So much bigger than I had anticipated and made so many! We made few different kinds….cinnamon and sugar. Tried the parmesan cheese kind. And made some with salt, garlic powder and Italian seasoning. (those were my faves) got me thinking of all the other different kinds! You can sprinkle with dill or ranch seasoning. Make them spicy. Roll them out to make bread sticks…I’m going crazy!!! Will definitely be making these very soon!!September 2, 2012 – 5:21 pm 
Made these today and they were soooo good! My new go-to snack.September 2, 2012 – 1:14 pm
Hi Lisa, Rhodes rolls….original size and Texas size which are a bit larger, are frozen balls of bread dough. JonnaAugust 31, 2012 – 11:21 am 
What is a Texas size Rhodes roll. Also if I don’t have it in my area then what could be used in place of it. 
omg. This makes my soul very happyAugust 30, 2012 – 2:41 pm
Hi Shannon, That gave me a good laugh for the day! JonnaAugust 16, 2012 – 6:50 am 
I’d like to share my story of these pretzels. 
I just wanted you to know that we just made these using a basic roll dough. When I bake bread and rolls I usually tripple the batch so that we can pull them out and proof them anytime we want rolls for dinner. Well I only had 8 rolls left so I used them and ended up with 64 pieces. They came out wonderful! and to accompany them I made a “chic-fil-a sauce” receipe i also found on pintrest! They were so good together my daugher asked me to make them special for her slumber party! so thank you so much!August 8, 2012 – 1:47 pm 
They have Rhodes rolls at WalmartAugust 5, 2012 – 8:26 pm
I had a bit of trouble finding Rhodes rolls and I tried all the local grocery stores. Finally I googled what they were and it turns out it is a staple product at Wallmart. I found 3 variations, dinner rolls,, Texas sized rolls, and white bread loaf. I’m thawing the Texas rolls right now to try this drool worthy recipeAugust 4, 2012 – 2:36 pm
Hi Jonna, Hey….we have the same first name! It shocked me, as I really thought I was the only one. 
Where do you buy a “Rhodes Roll” for the pretzel bites?July 12, 2012 – 11:52 pm 
OMG, they look sooo easy and DEVINE. Gonna try them this week. Thank you for sharing these recipes.July 7, 2012 – 7:22 pm
Hi Melissa, I have only used the Rhodes brand dough. JonnaJune 9, 2012 – 10:25 am 
I had high hopes for this recipe. I used Kroger brand rolls and followed the directions. The only difference I did was add baking soda to the water and I didn’t roll in parmesan or cinnamon sugar. I just brushed with butter and salt then made the cheddar dip. I don’t know if it was the brand or what, but it didn’t taste like a pretzel. It just tasted like a bland chewier roll. It wasn’t bad.. but still doesn’t satisfy the pretzel craving like mall pretzels do. Have other people had better luck? Does Rhodes end up tasting more like a pretzel?June 7, 2012 – 9:30 pm 
love the pretzel bites great flavorMay 30, 2012 – 9:21 am
[...] still making pretzel bites. Note: they taste horrible if you replace sugar with Splenda. We’ve been trying to cut sugar [...]May 8, 2012 – 7:33 pm 
These look amazing. I may have to make them when my husband is out of town, just in case they turn out awful haha Would Pillsbury biscuits work? I know it might be different since they are pre-risen. So would I just cut them into pieces, and then do the water bath and bake without waiting for them to thaw or rise?May 6, 2012 – 7:49 pm 
Made 72 of these things. My kids gobbled them up. So bad!April 23, 2012 – 4:32 am 
this looks fantastically amazingly yummy! i’m gonna have to try this and soon! thanks 
My Little Chefs had SO much fun making these! Thank you so much for the recipe. This recipe is kid tested! http://www.fivelittlechefs.com/2012/04/pretzel-bites.htmlApril 20, 2012 – 8:42 am 
I tried these, but if you don’t have the “roll” frozen bread dough, just the bread sizes. 
These look awesome & I can’t wait to try them! Do you think I could make a batch then freeze them? I’d love to have some that I could just pull out the freezer and heat up in the oven as a snack.March 28, 2012 – 7:08 am 
Ok.. didn’t see Jenna’s comment and the reply. Duhh. Sorry.
Do you have any suggestions for a substitute instead of Texas size Rhodes roll? I have never seen such a product before. Obviously not in my area.
Hi Jenna, Yes….I’ve used Pizza dough before! 
Not sure what the Texas dough is..what other dough can i use? I make my own pizza dough in my bread machine. Can i use that dough?March 8, 2012 – 8:57 am 
Can I come over? LOL these look amazing!March 6, 2012 – 2:27 pm 
I tried this recipe tonight and it was pretty amazing. I especially love the cinnamon sugar ones, but I never got around to making the glaze. On a side note, I wanted to suggest something that I personally think would be yummy (but as a college student with minimal basic kitchen essentials, I cannot try it at the moment). My idea is to make the bites, brush with melted butter, then dip into a mixture of crushed graham crackers and apple pie spice.March 4, 2012 – 7:28 pm 
Made these today with bread maker dough, EXCELLENT !!! Need to make balls smaller than you qould think (unless you want them big) cause they do swell but very yummy with cinnamon sugar.March 3, 2012 – 10:27 am
Hi Lisa, JonnaFebruary 29, 2012 – 6:40 pm 
Hi, what is Rhodes roll dough? Thanks.February 29, 2012 – 6:22 pm 
These look SO delicious! I will definitely be trying out the parmesan version very soon. Found you from this blog post: http://southernlovely.blogspot.com/2012/02/airplane-party.htmlFebruary 21, 2012 – 9:15 pm 
I made these for Walking Dead night at a friends house and they were a HUGE hit!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!February 19, 2012 – 7:39 pm 
Just made the pretzel bites–and boy are they good! I personally like the cinnamon and sugar bites–probably because I have had a big sweet tooth lately! Thanks for the great recipe! I’ll have to check out more of your recipes. 
Just made these, soo good! The only changes I made were I added a tablespoon of baking soda to the boiling water and I made them with kosher salt and garlic salt. YUM thanks!February 18, 2012 – 6:45 pm 
Ok, These look amazing! My teenage boys will be so happy…February 15, 2012 – 11:21 am
Hi Kim, 
What if I can’t find Texas size Rhodes Frozen roll dough? Would anything else work??? Thanks.
Hi Lindsay, 
Wow! I just made the parmesan pretzel bites – and they are amazing! I tend to be a little “kitchen-challenged” at times… so I’m thrilled that these turned out perfectly! I can’t believe I just made soft pretzel bites! 
I have never made anything with Rhodes dough before and I wanted to try this but my grocery didn’t have the Texas size dough, can I use any type of rhodes dough or does it have to be the Texas size for this recipe? Thank you!January 26, 2012 – 7:44 am 
So I know this was posted two years ago but I just found your blog. I’m new at the whole housewife deal and I’m excited to try many of your recipes!
Hi Amanda, 
Anyone have any experience with making these ahead of time? I’m looking to make them on a Monday or Tuesday for eating on Thursday and Friday (if they last that long!)January 22, 2012 – 2:33 pm 
Thank you for the recipe and all the explanations. We made these this afternoon and they are delicious. I’m not sure they will last long enough to get some dipping sauces made! The only note I would add for anyone else wanting to make them is that the ones I baked on a dark metal baking sheet got a little too “done” on the bottom. The ones I made on a lighter metal baking sheet were just right. Thanks again!January 21, 2012 – 3:30 pm
Hi Robin, I’ve never had this problem. I might have a few of the balls shrivel, but they puff back up when baked. JonnaJanuary 18, 2012 – 5:16 pm 
My pretzels didn’t turn out as well as expected. I wanted to take them somewhere but they were too ugly! Not chewy enough like a real pretzel. I will eat them, but probably won’t try them again.January 18, 2012 – 3:18 pm
Hi Brenna, Try, try again. We love these. JonnaJanuary 16, 2012 – 7:29 pm 
I tried these and they were a horrible failure. They shriveled in the water which I wouldn’t have minded but I thought they were going to taste like pretzels. Instead they just tasted like rolls with some butter and Parmesan.January 16, 2012 – 6:25 pm 
My family loved the cinnamon sugar pretzel bites!!!! Awesome
Hi Gina, 
I was wandering what garlic you use (salt, powder, minced)?January 14, 2012 – 5:44 pm 
How many do you get per loaf of bread? 16?January 12, 2012 – 8:15 pm
Hi Jessica, You can find Rhodes roll dough in the freezer section of the grocery store. They are just little round balls of unbaked bread dough. 
These sound fantastic! I have never bought that Rhodes roll dough before can you just get it at any local gorcery store? 
Hi Jonna, I just found your site and I absolutely love it! I too come from a family with 6 kids and 4 brothers who devour my baked goods nearly as fast as I make them! Haha. I’ll be making these pretzel bites in the next few days…and I’m sure they will be a hit around the house! 
Super disapointed this is based on prefab dough. Although I like the dips and sprinkles. May have to try this with homemade dough.December 7, 2011 – 8:23 pm 
Every time I see your pretzel bites picture on Pinterest, I about drool! I am at college so I haven’t been able to go home and make them, man I am counting days down cause this is deff one of the first things I want to make! They look amazing and I bet they taste amazing. Thanks for the great recipe!December 6, 2011 – 11:37 pm
My bags all say different.November 28, 2011 – 7:21 pm 
pretzlesNovember 28, 2011 – 5:54 pm 
could someone email me a picture of the correct dough for the pretzel bites? I got the right name brand but its not the right kind. Thanks!November 11, 2011 – 3:56 pm 
Just adding a little know-it-all tidbit. German and soft pretzles get their chewy outside, soft inside texture and their browned exterior by boiling them in an alkaline solution, not just water alone. You can get this by adding 1 tablespoon of baking soda to 3 quarts of water in your pot. This also give pretzles a slight zingyness on the sides of your tongue when you are eating them. Incidentally the alkaline bath makes them brown much quicker than if they were just boiled, leaving the inside just cooked through and soft. Any frozen, yeast bread dough (as long as it is not sweet dough) would work in this recipe.November 2, 2011 – 9:52 pm 
Made these last night. They didn’t stay as round as expected when I put them in the boiling water. I also should have let them brown more in the oven. 
Can’t wait to try the pretzel bites.October 13, 2011 – 10:28 am
Hi Cindy, 
I made the pretzel bites with a bag of pre-made pizza dough from our Walmart grocery store and it turned out great! Even better, the bag of pizza dough only costs 88cents. A cheap, fun treat!October 7, 2011 – 10:43 pm 
Yummy! Do you think pizza dough could work?October 7, 2011 – 10:22 pm 
What a fantastic recipe!! Bookmarking this.. yum!October 3, 2011 – 1:53 pm 
This the second delicious looking/sounding I have clicked on that’s from your blog. Guess that means I need to be reading it. 
These are soooo good! I made them last week and I plan on making them again today!October 1, 2011 – 2:14 pm
Hi Jo Ellen, I did try to roll each little piece of thawed dough in a circle first. It really doesn’t matter however, 
I absolutely love Auntie Em’s Pretzel bites but hate to pay their price or even have to visit the mall when I’m craving them. Then one day I came across your website and knew I had to try this recipe. I recently traveled to another state to visit my boyfriend and took the recipe with me. He was my taste tester and he LOVED them. I made both Salt and Cinnamon/Sugar, he liked the sweets better, of course. He also insisted I leave the recipe with him when I left. lol! The only thing I had a problem with (since i’m a perfectionist) I couldn’t get them near as round and pretty as you did. Any tips? I’m thinking that it may have to do with the fact that I quartered them before they thawed.September 27, 2011 – 11:15 pm 
I just made these with my regular bread dough recipe and they are delish. THanks for sharing!!! (mine aren’t quite as pretty as yours. I’ll have to work on that)September 27, 2011 – 3:04 pm 
Oh man…yum! I would love these with some cheese sauce.September 26, 2011 – 4:49 pm 
Holy cow! Those cinnamon pretzel bites are my new bff! Easy, cheap, yummy. Da bomb!!September 18, 2011 – 10:46 pm 
Found this recipe because of pinterest. Tried it today and it was AMAZING!!!! My taste buds have never been happier. I made all of mine with the cinnamon and sugar “coating.” oh man. The bag of rolls cost me just over $5 and made a TON of them! Will definitely be making them again in the future. I’ll be surprised if this batch lasts through the night 
They look delicious! 
OH. MY. GOSH. I am in love with these. The first batch we made a couple nights ago disappeared in under 2 minutes. Literally. Tonight I made a batch for just my husband and I. We like them with just salt, but the other methods were good too. Such an easy recipe and I have been sharing it with everyone I know!!September 12, 2011 – 10:14 pm 
This is the best idea for a tailgate snack! I will definitely be making these soon! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! Cheers! christischirps.blogspot.comSeptember 7, 2011 – 9:21 am 
Great recipe, Jonna! I made a huge batch of both kinds of bites last night, and they were gobbled right up. You can read my recipe review on my blog: http://thesexyknitter.blogspot.com/2011/08/deliciousness-pretzel-bites.html Thanks for sharing!August 21, 2011 – 12:20 pm 
I made these and posted the recipe to my blog Ladywiththeredrocker.wordpress.com. They were so good! Thanks for sharing.July 29, 2011 – 1:41 pm 
I’m not hosting any personal events any time soon (thanks to a much needed vaca) but I do believe I will be making these asap! Where can I find Rhodes Roll Dough? This is such a wonderfully simple recipe and set of instructions! Thank you so much for sharing! I can’t wait to try!July 25, 2011 – 8:52 am
[...] 9. Pretzel Bites – You must see the recipes for these pretzel bites! You choose: parmesan, cinnamon sugar or both! [...]July 20, 2011 – 7:31 pm 
Those pretzel bites and other snacks look amazing!! I’m going to have to try them out for sure!July 20, 2011 – 2:17 pm
Hi Karen, 
Would love to know a substitute for this Rhodes Roll, which I’ve never heard of or seen.June 30, 2011 – 12:20 pm 
Your treats look amazing! I want to try them. I hope i dont have any problem makeing them. 
I tried these pretzel bites and failed miserably all of mine turned very wrinkly after boiling and didnt rize again in the oven really bummed out please give me tips 
I wonder what other kind of homemade dough recipe you could use for this instead of the Rhodes frozen dough (don’t have it here). I wonder if I could make basic dough in the breadmaker and then use that?? Maybe I’ll just have to try it and see!!!June 10, 2010 – 12:44 pm 
Those look soooo yummy!!! THANKS!!March 27, 2010 – 1:27 am
MAN! You always have the tastiest recipes posted! These sound and look delicious! THANKS!!March 27, 2010 – 1:27 am
Those little pretzel bites are AMAZING! I'm only sad I looked at your site after the superbowl party.February 18, 2010 – 3:30 am
Looks delicious!February 10, 2010 – 4:53 pm
I'm not familiar with Rhodes Roll dough. Is it just a frozen bread dough? Your treat look fabulous.
Those pretzel bites look soooo tempting and I have some frozen dough. I hope I'll have time to make them for a treat for my kids today (and pop a few into my mouth while I'm at it).February 8, 2010 – 6:10 pm
I LOVE THIS BLOG! Thanks for sharing your yummy recipes!February 7, 2010 – 9:15 pm
Oh my you are wonderful! I know you started this theme with cleaning out the freezer, but this is amazing! I am yeast challenged and so the bread dough thingy is wonderful! Thank you for sharing!!!February 7, 2010 – 12:33 am
No partying going on at this house tomorrow, but all the ideals just look wonderful. I think the parmesan bites would be way worse then the twist on my hips, because eating 4 of them just wouldn't see the same as eating on twist!!!February 6, 2010 – 11:11 pm  O.K . . . if we have to, it’s time to get our game on! You could do it this way. Believe me now? . . . this will seal the deal! Rhodes . . . you should hire me! Come on get off your butt and make these. It’s a snap . . . SWAP… 
Just made these. My husband loves me even more & they are absolutely WONDERFUL!! So much easier than the 4 hour process my homemade recipe calls for and just as good- if not better!August 28, 2010 – 7:59 pm
oh my…those look great and easy. I love anything with cinnamon in it!February 11, 2010 – 5:25 am
Yum! I would gladly trade the remote for one of those. I better not make them though, because I am not sure i could stop at just one!!! I love all the cute comments on the pictures. I am not sure that sitting in a bowl of butter is considered skinny dipping though, I would say more like Chunky dunking!!!February 6, 2010 – 11:10 pm
Genius…I seriously love your blog.February 6, 2010 – 10:25 pm
The knots look glamorous and really tempting. The step by step directions are kinda nice and cute.February 6, 2010 – 7:02 am
Your pics and directions are fabulous. Yum!February 5, 2010 – 11:23 pm  Once upon a time . . . you could buy a box mix by Better Crocker called Date Bars. one day, one very sad day . . . it vanished from store shelves! What will we do – the children cried? What will we do – my Dad cried? What ever will we do – I cried?… 
YOU ARE MY HERO!! No one has any clue what I’m talking about when I say there used to be a betty crocker mix! I MISS IT! I’m making this recipe as soon as I can! THANK YOU TONS!June 19, 2010 – 7:58 pm 
I have been looking for a date bar recipe, just like the old mix that my mom used to make at least once a week, it was so small though, for all of us,we had to wait until she made them again!!April 14, 2010 – 1:11 pm 
When I first found your website, I discovered that you were close to my age, even though you look much younger.
Really? There was such a product? I never heard of it? Why did they stop making it I wonder. Your re-creation looks fabulous.February 5, 2010 – 1:19 am |

Jonna - Hi Theresa,
Make sure that your puff pastry stays cold. Pinch together very firmly and seal with egg white or egg wash. Make sure that the open holes are very open. Once they start baking, if you notice some opening too much, quickly pinch tops together again, before they are golden. Hope this helps. I hope you were still able to eat them!
