Quick and Easy Pretzel Bites with Nutella® Dipping Sauce

Quick and Easy Pretzel Bites with Nutella® Dipping Sauce

Very quick and easy pretzel bites with two dipping sauces. This came together kind of by accident when the kids wanted a snack after school. We have made homemade pretzels before and I have to admit that was a little time consuming. The trick with this shortcut is the baking soda water bath. I love Nutella®. Enjoy!

Ingredients

Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce

  • 1/3 cup yellow mustard
  • 3 teaspoons honey, or more to taste
  • 1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated pizza crust
  • 1/3 cup baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons Himalayan pink salt, or to taste

Chocolate Dipping Sauce

  • ½ (8 ounce) package Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella®)
  • 2 tablespoons milk, or more to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2
Unroll pizza crust and cut into 2-inch squares. Roll each square into a ball and place on a cookie sheet.

Step 3
Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil. Stir in baking soda until dissolved. Add pizza balls to the boiling water in batches. Cook until puffed up and floating, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle salt on top.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 5
Mix Neufchatel cheese, chocolate-hazelnut spread, and milk together to make chocolate dipping sauce. Add more milk for a thinner dip. Mix mustard and honey together in a separate bowl. Serve warm pretzel bites with dipping sauces.

Cook’s Notes:

The dough can sit out for up to an hour before boiling.
