Family movie nights are always better with a bunch of snacks. Here are my 3 favorite and they are all super easy to make!
PRETZEL BITES

- Slice dough into 1 inch wide, 4 inch long slices. Roll each slice to form balls.
- Boil a large pot of water and add the baking soda, stirring as you add. Drop the balls in and cook for about 2 minutes, or until they puff up.
- Remove the balls with a slotted spoon and put onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
