In a bowl mix:
2 packets dry yeast
1 1/2 c warm water
Add:
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
Add:
4 c flour
Mix.
Put the dough on waxed paper & knead until smooth.
Roll into “snakes” to make pretzel, or cut off pieces & make them into shapes you like- not too thick or too thin or they won’t bake properly.
Place on cookie sheet.
Brush entire top of pretzel with beaten egg.
Sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake @ 425 for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
