INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat milk and butter until very warm (120-130 degrees F.). Mix yeast,
salt, sugar, and 1 cup flour.  Slowly beat into warm milk. Beat for 2
minutes. Add eggs and 1 cup of flour. Beat for an additional 2
minutes. Add enough flour to form a soft dough.  Knead until smooth
and elastic, about 5 minutes.  Place dough in a greased bowl. Let  rise
in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Punch dough  down
and let rise again until doubled. (1 hour more).  Divide dough  in
half. Shape pretzel as follows: Roll dough into a rope about 30  inches
long and 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Cross the ends leaving a  large loop
in the center. Flip loop back onto crossed ends to form a  pretzel.
Repeat with remaining dough. Place pretzels on greased  baking sheets.
Let rise 15 minutes more. Bake at 375 degrees F for  25 to 30 minutes
or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks. Mix  confectioners' sugar,
water and vanilla to form a thin icing. Spread  icing on pretzels and
sprinkle with chopped almonds. Makes 2 large  pretzels.  From Gemini's

A Message from our Provider:

“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
