     Title: Soft Pretzel Bites
Categories: Breads, Cheese, Dairy
     Yield: 32 Bites

          Cooking spray
16 1/3 oz Can refrigerated biscuit
          - dough
     4 c  Water
   1/4 c  Baking soda
     1 lg Egg; beaten
          Coarse salt
     2 tb Butter
     2 tb A-P flour
     1 c  Milk
     2 c  Cheddar
          Coarse salt
          Fresh ground black pepper
       pn Cayenne pepper

 Set oven @ 425°F/218°C.

 Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spray
 with cooking spray.

 MAKE THE PRETZELS: Quarter each biscuit, then roll each
 piece into a ball. Using a knife, carve an X into each
 ball. In a medium saucepan, combine water and baking
 soda. Bring to boil then reduce to a simmer. Add balls
 and cook for 30 seconds. (The dough will float to top.)
 Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to baking
 sheet, making sure the pretzels aren't touching. (Don't
 worry if the dough looks messy here! They'll completely
 transform in the oven.) Brush beaten egg over each
 pretzel, then sprinkle with coarse salt.

 Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.

 MEANWHILE, MAKE CHEESE SAUCE: Melt butter in a small
 saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1
 minute. Stir in milk and bring to a simmer. When milk
 begins to thicken, stir in cheese, whisking constantly
 until sauce is smooth. Season to taste with salt,
 pepper, and cayenne. Serve with the pretzels.
