Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, I preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare my baking dish by lightly greasing it. The first layer is the pretzel crust, which is super easy to make. I combine the crushed pretzels, granulated sugar, and melted butter in a mixing bowl, stirring until everything is well-coated. Once ready, I press this mixture into the bottom of the greased baking dish, ensuring an even layer. I pop it into the oven for about 10 minutes, just long enough to give it a little toasty crunch. This aroma wafts through my kitchen, and I can hardly wait to dive in! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
