    internet

    List of Ingredients




    2/3 cup dry milk 1/2 cup sugar
    2 tsp. salt
    2 cup lukewarm water
    2 cakes yeast (or equivalent in dry yeast)
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup shortening
    7 - 7 1/2 cup flour
    Margarine
    Powdered sugar, nuts, cherries, etc.

    Recipe



    Mix dry milk, salt, sugar and water. Stir in mixing bowl. Stir
    in yeast until it dissolves. Add eggs and shortening and stir in.
    Add flour, cup by cup, beating in with mixer on high speed, until
    about half the flour is used. Mix in remaining flour. Let rise
    until double. Punch down and let rise again. (If in haste you can
    skip rising twice.) Take half of dough and roll it to form a long
    strip and shape into a pretzel, twisting once at the center. Repeat
    remaining half. Bake about 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from
    oven and brush with margarine. Frost while still warm with a thin
    powdered sugar and water frosting. Sprinkle with chopped nuts or
    decorate with candied cherries, etc, if desired.

    Makes 16 servings and can be frozen.
