Critical Success Points

  • Mix the butter and powdered sugar until a creamy texture is achieved.
  • Rest the dough so it is pliable but not too firm.
  • Shape the pretzels without breaking them while keeping the dough slightly warm.
  • Apply the glaze immediately after baking while the pretzels are hot.

Safety Warnings

  • The oven and glaze are very hot; handle with kitchen gloves.
  • Do not let the glaze cool completely before coating the pretzels, otherwise it will not stick.
