Things To Grab

- Parchment paper
- Hy-Vee nonstick cooking spray
- Large stockpot
- 6 10-oz. souffle dishes
- Medium stockpot
- Slotted spoon
Directions
Place butter in a large stockpot over medium heat. Once butter is sizzling, add skinless brats. Cook until no longer pink breaking up large chunks. Stir in onion, potatoes, ground mustard, and caraway seeds. Cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add flour to stock pot. Stirring constantly, toast flour for 1 to 2 minutes. Add chicken broth, beer, and half and half all at once to stockpot. Bring to a boil.
Remove stockpot from heat and stir in cheese. Once cheese has melted, pour soup into 6 10-oz. soufflé dishes and place onto aluminum-lined sheet pan.
Place water and baking soda in a medium stockpot. Bring to boiling. Cut dough into 6 even portions and roll out into a 20-inch rope. Shape pretzels.
Carefully place into boiling baking soda water. Cook for 30 seconds. Remove using a slotted spoon and place onto parchment-lined sheet pan. Brush beaten egg over each pretzel and season with kosher salt.
Place both sheet pans into preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes or until pretzels are golden brown and soup is bubbling. When ready to serve, top each portion of soup with one pretzel.
