Easy Pretzel Bites with Nutella Dipping Sauce

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Pretzel Bites with Nutella Dipping Sauce.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C), setting the stage for deliciousness.

2. Step 2

   Next, unroll your pizza crust and cut it into delightful 2-inch squares.

3. Step 3

   Take each square and roll it into a little ball, placing them on a cookie sheet as you go.

4. Step 4

   In a large pot, bring 3 quarts of water to a rolling boil, then stir in the baking soda until it’s completely dissolved—this is the secret to that perfect pretzel texture! Carefully drop the pizza balls into the boiling water in batches, cooking them until they puff up and float, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Once they’re ready, use a slotted spoon to transfer these golden bites to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and don’t forget to sprinkle a little salt on top for that extra flavor.

6. Step 6

   Now, pop them into your preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.

7. Step 7

   While those are baking, let’s whip up a scrumptious Nutella® dipping sauce! In a bowl, combine Neufchatel cheese, chocolate-hazelnut spread, and a splash of milk, mixing until it’s smooth and creamy.

8. Step 8

   If you like your dip a bit thinner, just add a little more milk until it’s just right.

9. Step 9

   For a zesty twist, mix together some mustard and honey in a separate bowl for an additional dipping option.

10. Step 10

    Once your pretzel bites are out of the oven and perfectly golden, serve them warm alongside the Nutella® dipping sauce and the sweet mustard-honey dip.

    Enjoy this delightful treat that’s perfect for sharing or indulging all on your own!.
