Garlic Butter Pretzel Bites with Cheddar Cheese Dip 
These Garlic Butter Pretzel Bites are soft, chewy, and bursting with flavor, making them the perfect snack or appetizer! Paired with a creamy Cheddar Cheese Dip, they’re sure to be a hit. Here’s how to make them:
Ingredients:
For the Pretzel Bites:
1 (16.3-ounce) package refrigerated pizza dough
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling (optional)
For the Cheddar Cheese Dip:
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Pretzel Bites:
Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough into small squares (about 1-2 inches).
In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each dough square into the garlic butter mixture, then place them on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between each pretzel bite. If desired, sprinkle coarse sea salt on top.
Bake the Pretzel Bites:
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and brush with any remaining garlic butter.
Make the Cheddar Cheese Dip:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute to create a roux.
Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until the mixture thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Continue to stir until the cheese is melted and the dip is smooth.
Serve:
Serve the warm garlic butter pretzel bites with the cheddar cheese dip on the side.
