Instructions
- Place the warm water, 1 tablespoon of the sugar and the yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Allow to sit until softened and the yeast is bubbling, 2-5 minutes. Stir in the remaining sugar, the taco seasoning and one cup of the flour and mix to combine. Add in the salt, and start add in the flour, 1/4 to 1/2 cup at a time, until you have a dough that soft and tacky. Knead until smooth, about 5 minutes.
- Place the vegetable oil in a large bowl. Add the dough and turn to coat. Place a towel or plastic wrap over the top and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Make the filling while the dough is rising. Combine the cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese in a bowl. Add in the jalapeños and stir until combined.
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large pot, bring the 8 cups of water to a boil. Add in the baking soda slowly. (It will bubble up, so make sure you add it in gradually and slowly.)
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Working with one piece at a time, roll it into a long rectangle, about 18-inches by 3-inches. Cut the piece into 4 equal pieces. Place about 2 teaspoons of the filling down the center of each piece. Carefully roll the dough over the filling, then pinch in the ends and the seam.
- Add the dough to the boiling water and let it boil for 30-60 seconds. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer to the baking sheet, spacing a couple inches apart.
- Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Lightly beat the egg with a splash of water. Brush the egg over the tops of the pretzel sticks, then sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake in the preheated oven until dark and brown, 15-18 minutes.
- To make the taco guacamole, mash the avocados in a large bowl. Stir in the sour cream, taco seasoning, cilantro and lime juice. Season to taste with salt. Serve the guacamole with the warm pretzel sticks.
Notes
- The pretzels are best served the same day that they are made. If you are holding them overnight, store them in an airtight container.
- Seal the edges of the pretzel dough around the filling as best as you can so that most of the filling will stay inside the pretzels.
