You just can't beat fresh baked Pretzels right out of the oven..
1 cup beer or water
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tsp. salt
3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp. active dry yeast
1 egg
1 tablespoon warm water (110 degrees F)
Course salt and sesame seeds
Measure first 6 ingredients in order listed into baking pan. Select: Dough/Pasta setting and press start.
When the cycle is complete remove dough to a lightly floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle. Roll into a 14X9 inch rectangle. With a sharp knife, cut into (18) 14X1/2 -inch strips. Gently pull each strip into a rope 16 inches long. To shape into pretzels: Curve ends of each rope to make a circle; cross ends at top. Twist ends once and lay over bottom of circle. Place on greased baking sheets. DO NOT LET RISE.
Combine lightly beaten egg and 1 tablespoon water; brush on pretzels. Sprinkle with coarse salt or sesame seeds. Bake in a preheated 350* oven for 18-20 minutes or until done. Remove from sheets and let pretzels cool on wire rack.
