Cheese Pretzels

From Baroness Caroline Fleming

• Ready In: 22 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 250  g flour
• 25  g cheddar cheese, shredded
• 25  g butter
• 2  teaspoons baking powder
• 1  teaspoon sugar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 6  tablespoons milk
• 1  egg, whisked
•  salt
•  sesame seeds

Directions

1. Turn oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Blend the flour, cheese, butter, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl with your hands. Slowly add the milk, so the dough becomes a ball.
2. Flour a flat surface and put the dough onto it. Roll it out into an approximately 10in. x 7in. shape. Cut the dough in 3/4 inches strips (easy to do with a pizza cutter). Form each strip into a pretzel or whatever shape you wish. Put them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper. Sprinkle sea salt, sesame seeds, or more shredded cheese as desired.
3. Bake 10-12 minutes until golden.
