Cinnamon Roll Pretzels Recipe - Crunchy Creamy Sweet (1)

This snack. OMG. I am obsessed! And I am about to spread the obsession! Because you have to make it like yesterday. No other way to go about it.

I am a huge fan of cinnamon rolls. See these, these and this cake! There is just something comforting about the sweet cinnamon and creamy topping that makes you weak in the knees. Best weekend breakfast treat.

These pretzels were just supposed to be a simple snack. Coated with cinnamon sugar goodness and baked. Because I am crazy about cinnamon sugar treats lately. But then I got this crazy idea to drizzle white chocolate all over the batch! Remember, I have drizzle-all-the-desserts issue recently.

    This recipe looks amazing. But my question is. Are you using regular size pretzels or mini ones? It does not specify in the list of ingredients. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks again.
