As the brownies were baking,we got ready to prepare the onion pretzels :) i got some water heating up in a cooking pot on the stove :) i cut the dough into portions and we made the dough into the shapes of pretzels :) i then put the pretzels one or two at a time into the water,the hot water helps the pretzels get larger :) i used a metal spatual to put the pretzels onto the baking pan,that i greased with butter :) we melted some butter in a measuring cup,and added dried onion flakes into the butter,and drizzled the butter and onion flakes onto the pretzels,and sprinkled a little more onion flakes onto the pretzels on the pan,and then put the pretzels into the oven to bake :) We did some cleaning up in the kitchen :) we were all hanging out :) The kids were going back and forth, from the kitchen and living room :)

The Brownies finished baking,i brought them out of the oven to cool down :) The onion pretzels baked for about 20 minutes :)once the top of the pretzels get a little golden brown on top, i bring the pretzels out of the oven :) They have a nice crisp, and the pretzels are soft inside, which is great :) i took some pictures of the brownies and pretzels, and we all began to dig in :) the brownies and pretzels came out great :) i thanked the kids and Holly for helping bake :) We love these very special, spirited fun times :) We have many more super fun baking friday adventures to look forward too as the season continues on :) a very special shoutout for family and friends :) Lots of great baking and cooking this week :) We love hearing about the nice goodies, and foods you all bake and cook :) We're all with eachother in spirit, in our kitchens :) This is so much fun and very special :) i wish we all could gather and have a big baking friday picnic :) Brownies, and Onion Pretzels,dedicated to our wonderful family, friends, and to the wonderful spirit of the season :) We love you all so very very much! :) many great memories made, to always cherish and treasure :) baking friday! :) We love it!!! :) January 27th, 2023 :) Happy baking friday everyone! :)
