  • Prep 30 min
  • Total 60 min
  • Servings 10

Ingredients

  • 4 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1 package active dry yeast
  • Pretzel salt
  • 1 1/2 quarts caramel swirl ice cream
  • Egg
  • 1/2 cup baking soda

Steps

  • 1
    Warm the water in the microwave to about 110°F. Add the sugar, water, and yeast and allow to sit for about 10 minutes until bubbly.
  • 2
    Mix in the flour and melted butter and knead for at least 7 minutes until the dough is soft, smooth, and not sticky.
  • 3
    Allow to rest an hour for dough to double in size.
  • 4
    Roll out the dough into logs about a half inch thick and 15 inches long. Fold into pretzels.
  • 5
    Bring about 15 cups of water to a boil and add in the baking soda. Dip the pretzels into the boiling water for about 1 minute each. Whisk the egg with an equal amount of water. Brush the pretzels with the egg wash and sprinkle with the pretzel salt. Bake at 425°F for about 15 minutes.
  • 6
    Allow the pretzels to cool fully, then cut in half the long way.
  • 7
    Place the pretzels into the freezer for about 30 minutes before filling. Fill pretzels with one scoop of caramel swirl ice cream and press down to smoosh.
  • 8
    Store in the freezer until it's time to serve, but ideally, you want to serve them within a few hours of making them, or the pretzels will get too hard.
