    List of Ingredients




    1/2 c Butter Or Margarine
    1/4 c Sugar
    1 ea Egg; Large, Beaten
    1 t Vanilla Extract
    1/4 c Milk
    1/4 c Cocoa
    2 c Flour; Unbleached, Unsifted

    COCOA FROSTING
    2 T Cocoa
    1 1/4 c Confectioners' Sugar
    2 T Butter Or Margarine; Melted
    1/2 t Vanilla Extract

    Recipe



    Cream 1/2 cup butter and the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the
    egg, vanilla, and milk. Sift cocoa and flour. Mix into butter mixture
    until thoroughly blended. Chill dough until firm enough to handle (about
    30 minutes). Using 2 T dough, roll a rope about 12 inches long between
    your hands. Shape into a pretzel as follows: Make a loop bout 1 1/2
    inches in diameter by crossing the ends, leaving 1-inch tails. Flip the
    loop down over the crossed ends. Press firmly into place. Place pretzels
    on greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F. for about 10 minutes. Mak
    frosting in a small bowl. Mix cocoa and confectioners' sugar. Gradually
    stir in butter and vanilla. If frosting is too thick, thin with milk. When
    pretzels are cool, spread with Cocoa Frosting.

    Make 2 dozen.
