Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water and sprinkle yeast over the top. Let sit for 5 minutes, until foamy.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth.
Step 3
Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Step 4
Mix shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses together in a bowl.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6
Divide dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope, flatten slightly, and place a tablespoon of cheese filling in the center. Pinch the dough closed around the cheese and shape into a pretzel.
Step 7
In a large pot, bring water and baking soda to a boil. Gently drop pretzels into the water for about 30 seconds, then remove and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 8
Brush pretzels with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 9
Allow pretzels to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite dipping sauces!
