Soft Pretzel
Kids Cooking Party
Would

free of ads and compiled in one ebook?
Having a soft pretzel kids cooking party
allows kids to get a hands on cooking experience. Kids are sure to love
the fun, the mess and eating the finished product.
To get started you will want to download
the soft pretzel recipe card
for each child that will be at the party. This will give them each a
chance to follow the recipe while they are preparing the menu. It is
also a good idea to include an extra one for them to take home so they
can impress their own family with what they learned at the cooking
party.
Once you know the number of children coming go through the list of
things needed especially utensils, bowls, etc. If you need extra ask
friends or family if you can borrow some items for your pretzel kids
cooking party.

Soft Pretzel Recipe
2 packages or 2 Tablespoons active dry yeast 2 cups warm water
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup butter
softened
2 eggs
6 to 7 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg white for brushing the tops
If you have a large group of kids split the group into two teams and
double the recipe. Work together as a team and assign different tasks
to each child so everyone has a turn adding or stirring.
Pour water in measuring cup and heat water in the microwave to
lukewarm, about 110 degrees. Add sugar to water and stir to dissolve.
Add yeast into water. Allow yeast to bubble and foam for several
minutes. Meanwhile in mixing bowl add salt, soft butter, 2 eggs and 3-4
cups flour. Blend together. Add in yeast mixture and remaining cups of
flour. Blend until dough forms a ball. Knead on a floured surface
several minutes.
Pull off pieces of dough and roll
into ropes. Then cross ends over to make an X and form dough into a
pretzel shape. Place on greased cookie sheets. In small bowl whisk egg
white. With a pastry brush, brush tops of pretzels. Bake at 400 degrees
for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
While waiting
for pretzels to cook, prepare a dessert or other recipe you have
planned, decorate aprons, chef hats or play cooking games.
