Yogurt Snack

I live on campus at BSC, but my favorite place to eat on campus is the Commuter Caf. Go figure. But I recently tried these pretzels there. Why am I talking about pretzels in a yogurt blog? Because they were yogurt-covered pretzels!! They are so good! I recommend them to everyone! The ComCaf also has chocolate-covered pretzels (do not eat these; they are gross -- at least in my opinion). For some reason the yogurt ones are just so good, and the chocolate ones taste like wax-covered pretzels. If you guys don't want to buy the yogurt pretzels from our overpriced Caf, here's a recipe where you can make them at home:

Ingredients:

1 bag of your favorite miniature pretzels
2 cups strawberry or vanilla yogurt
5 cups confectioners sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 250°F. In a large mixing bowl, mix the confectioners sugar into the yogurt one cup at a time with a hand blender. Using tongs or chopsticks, dip the pretzels, one at a time into the frosting and place them on the wire cooling rack. (Place a cookie sheet under the wire rack to catch the excess frosting that will drip from the pretzels.) Once all pretzels are coated, turn your oven off and place the wire rack and cookie sheet in, leaving the oven door slightly open. The excess heat will help the frosting dry without leaving the pretzels soggy. Allow frosting to harden for 3-4 hours, remove from oven, and store pretzels in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Yields: 3-4 dozen pretzels
