handle (about 30 minutes). Using 2 T dough, roll a rope about 12
inches long between your hands. Shape into a pretzel as follows:
Make a loop bout 1 1/2 inches in diameter by crossing the ends,
leaving 1-inch tails. Flip the loop down over the crossed ends. Press
firmly into place. Place pretzels on greased baking sheets. Bake at
350 degrees F. for about 10 minutes. Mak frosting in a small bowl.

vanilla. If frosting is too thick, thin with milk. When pretzels are
cool, spread with Cocoa Frosting. Make 2 dozen.
