Ponytail Pretzels

Let's start rolling! Ponytails with a twist!

Makes 12 pretzels

Flour for dusting
1 package (12 count) frozen roll dough, thawed
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 can purchased vanilla frosting
Assorted food coloring
Assorted colored sprinkles and decorating sugars

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Line a cookie sheet with foil and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

Dust your work area with 2 tablespoons of flour. Take a roll and knead it. Then roll it into a snake shape. Repeat for remaining rolls. Place each rolled piece of dough onto prepared pan, leaving 1 1/2 inches between each. To form a ponytail, twist up the bottom end of each piece of dough to create a curvy ponytail shape.

With a pastry brush, dampen the surface of each ponytail with a small amount of water. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly golden brown.

While pretzels are baking, divide frosting between several small bowls and color each with a different food coloring.

Remove baked pretzels from oven and cool on pan 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Drizzle each with assorted colored frostings and decorate with sprinkles.
