I love those warm buttery huge pretzels you get at the mall, and so I inquired my mother - who is the baker in the family.
Here is a recipe that has worked. These pretzels are better than the warm pretzels you get at the mall by far!
They are great plain with a bit of pretzel salt or coat them with cinnamon and sugar! (I like to put a light cream cheese on mine)....
Enjoy!
