What could be better than these pretzel bites? More pretzel bites? Nope, more pretzel bites stuffed with pepperjack cheese! I made a double recipe of these this morning, six regular pretzels and six dozen or so pretzel bites.Grandson pronounced them the best I've ever made and would be even better with cheese in the middle. Of course I had to try that and it worked. Roll dough into rope, then pat with three fingers into a flattened rope, line up about 3/4 inch pieces of cheese, leaving 1/4 inch between pieces. Pull sides up, pinch together, and give it a little roll over to seal. You can easily feel along the sides with a gentle pinching motion to find where the spaces are between cheese chunks. For the second batch I just lightly floured the countertop for the resting phase and sprinkled a little flour over the top, covered with plastic wrap. Thanks for the recipe, it is a keeper, and the stuffability options are endless.
