Servings 6

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 250°F (120°C).This low temperature helps the cookies set without overbaking, ensuring a soft,chewy texture
Step 2: Prepare the Base Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine 5 cups of confectioners' sugarand 2 cups of yogurt. Use a handheld mixer to blend untilsmooth. If you're using sourdough discard, add 2-3tablespoons at this stage and mix until fully incorporated. This willgive the cookies a subtle tang and enhance their softness.
Step 3: Customize Your Flavor
If you’d like a fruity twist, add 2 tablespoons of seedless preservesin your preferred flavor
Step 4: Dip the Pretzels
Using tongs, chopsticks, or tweezers, dip each miniaturepretzel into your yogurt (or chocolate) mixture. Make sure eachpretzel is completely coated, then place them on a wire rack set over a bakingsheet to catch any drips.Pro Tip: For even coating, letthe excess drip off before placing them on the rack
Step 5: Let Them Set
Once all your pretzels are coated, turn off the oven and place the baking sheets inside with the door slightly ajar. This helps the coating harden without making the pretzels soggy. Let them set for 3-4 hours.
Step 6: Enjoy andStore
After the coating has hardened, remove the pretzels from the oven and enjoy!Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crisp.
