Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound butter braid pretzels (or butter snaps)
  • 4 tablespoons butter (melted, preferably unsalted)
  • 3 tablespoons ranch dressing mix
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, but delicious)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 250°F.
  • In a bowl (or in the pretzel bag itself) toss the pretzels gently with the melted butter to coat evenly.
  • Sprinkle the ranch dressing mix and cayenne if using over the pretzels and again toss to coat evenly.
  • Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on a half sheet pan and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, or until the pretzels are dry to the touch and the seasoning is set on them.
  • Eat warm, or let cool completely to room temperature before transferring to an airtight container or bag for storage.These are good for about a week at room temperature.
