Ingredients

1/4 cup 7UP® or Diet 7UP®

Where did the name Shirley Temple come from? The drink was named after iconic child actress Shirley Temple. Legend has it that when she was out to dinner at a nice restaurant with her parents and other Hollywood types who were all enjoying cocktails, the bartender made her a special nonalcoholic drink so she could feel fancy too. Instead of 7UP, the Shirley Temple recipe can also be made with Canada Dry® Ginger Ale.

Ever since I made my soft pretzel bites last year I have been wanting to try homemade cinnamon sugar soft pretzel bites! Well, I finally had an excuse to make them and now I'm wondering why I didn't do it sooner!?

These soft pretzel bites are perfectly soft in the middle, with a chewy soft pretzel crust, and are coated in cinnamon sugar!

These pretzel bites are best eaten warm and fresh, but if you're going to eat some the next day zap them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to warm them up!

This recipe makes a big giant batch of these, so they're perfect for a fun party (aka when you'll be watching the super bowl in a couple weeks!?)

But they're also delicious when you're just craving something sweet, or craving some soft pretzels from the mall! These pretzel bites are just like Auntie Ann's and now you can make them at home whenever you want!

If you aren't making them for a party or to share, I recommend cutting the recipe in half! Everything should be fine being cut in half except the egg wash (1 egg + water, for coating the pretzels) , and the baking soda bath should stay the same as well since the pretzel bites are boiled in the baking soda bath in separate portions already.

They're a little messy to make, and look a little intimidating with so many steps, but I promise you that they are so worth it and they take less than an hour to whip up!

They're delicious plain or dipped in a warm cream cheese frosting! I made up a quick altered version of my cream cheese frosting (because its the best ever!) and it was the perfect dip for these cinnamon sugar bites!

They would also be delicious dipped in some hot fudge, or salted caramel sauce! I'm drooling just thinking about it!

For the Baking Soda Bath:

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

For the Cream Cheese Dip:

For the Pretzels:

Dissolve your yeast in your warm water in a large bowl. Stir together for about 1 minute until mostly combined.

Add in your salt, sugar and butter and stir everything together.

Add in your flour, 1 cup at a time until dough is thick and no longer sticky. Add more flour 1 TBS at a time if needed to make sure dough isn't sticky. (Poke dough with your finger, and dough should bounce back - then it is ready)

Lightly flour a flat surface.

Knead your dough for 3 minutes and form into a ball.

Oil a large bowl with nonstick spray and place dough in. Cover bowl with a towel and place in a warm area.

Allow to rest in warm area for about 30 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.

Bring 9 cups of water with ½ cup of baking soda to boil.

Cut your dough ball into 6 sections.

Roll each section into long ropes about 20-22 inches long.

Cut each rope into about 10-12 1.5 inch pieces.

Drop one rope worth of pretzel bites into your baking soda bath and let sit for 20-30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone liner.

Beat together your egg and 1 TBS water in a small bowl.

Brush egg over each pretzel bite and place on prepared pan.

Place in oven and bake for 15 minutes or until pretzel tops are a nice golden brown.

Combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.

Dip each pretzel bite into melted butter then into cinnamon sugar mixture.

Set back on tray and repeat with additional pretzel bites.

For the Cream Cheese Dip:

Mix together your butter and cream cheese until smooth.

Add in your powdered sugar and vanilla and mix until completely combined. (Add in milk 1/2 TBS at a time, if needed to make dip softer and smoother) Microwave for 20 seconds to reheat if you're not using immediately.

Jill Paradiso is a classically trained chef that blogs about her adventures in the kitchen at SavageandSage.com. This is her first in a series of Italian-American recipes for Food Republic.

Because my father's family is from Naples, come September we always went to the Feast of San Gennaro (Patron Saint of....Naples!) in NYC's Little Italy. For me, the highlight of San Gennaro (or any Italian-American street fair) was eating fried dough balls called zeppole. They were served in brown paper bags or parchment-paper cones and dusted with powdered sugar. Sometimes they had raisins in them, which provided bits of unexpected sweetness. Some of my most vivid childhood memories involve the balancing act of navigating through throngs of people on Elizabeth Street while trying to jam baseball-sized balls of fried dough into my mouth without getting completely covered in powdered sugar.

As it turns out, zeppole are really easy to make at home and require almost no time at all - about 15 minutes. I've adapted the recipe for the home cook and adjusted the size to make them easier to fry and easier to eat - about two bites each, or the size of an egg.

Imagine yourself in the tropics! This Tropical Smoothie Recipe is full of fruit flavors - a great way to start your day! PIN IT FOR LATER!
Are you looking for something fast and delicious that you can make for breakfast? Or how about a healthy after school snack? I feel like I've been in a rut lately, so I'm glad I was reminded of this Tropical Smoothie Recipe that I originally posted about back in 2008!

I often think that people don't really need a recipe for a smoothie. But if you are like me, you get in the habit of making the same smoothie over and over again. So I'm here with some inspiration for a tropical treat for breakfast. Of course, you can sub in different fruits, or even different liquids, but I thought this one was pretty perfect as it is!

What do you put in a fruit smoothie?

I have a bit of a love affair with smoothies. And the thing that I love the most is that the sky is the limit when it comes to what ingredients you use.

For a fruit smoothie, I like to use frozen fruit when possible. Frozen fruit is readily available at the grocery store, but it is also super simple to freeze fruit yourself at home, too. To keep things basic, you really only need a liquid - you can use anything from water to milk to coconut milk to fruit juice - and the fruit. If you are using fresh fruit, or if you like a thicker or icier consistency, you'll want to add a bit of ice, too.

What Ingredients go in this Tropical Smoothie Recipe

There are only a few ingredients that you need to make this tropical smoothie. These are all ingredients that are easy to keep on hand - either in the refrigerator or the freezer. If you are an avid smoothie fan, you'll probably already have all of these ingredients on hand! Here is what you need:

frozen mango chunks

frozen strawberries

frozen banana

milk

orange juice

plain Greek yogurt

honey

Tips for Making Smoothies

Not all blenders are created equal. This doesn't mean that you have to have the newest, most expensive blender on the market. In fact, I wrote a whole cookbook that I tested using a cheap $15 blender from the local big box store. But the truth of the matter is that most smoothies won't be as smooth in a cheaper blender as they are in a more powerful blender. Frozen fruit can take awhile to break down into the smoothie if you don't have a high powered blender, so just be aware that it may take a little longer in a cheaper blender. Just have patience!

If you are using a high powered blender, you can just throw everything in any order. If you have a cheaper blender, put the liquid in first and the frozen fruit last.

Start your blender on a low speed and work up to a higher speed.

Italian Pizza Bites have all of the pizza flavors you love all in one (or two!) bites! They are the perfect way to transition your favorite Italian pizza into a fun finger-food snack.

Creating these Italian Pizza Bites

The ingredients in these snacks are simple. They are great for school lunch or an after school snack, to bring to birthday parties, bbq's, football parties, etc.

Plus, they are made in a mini size muffin tin because everything in mini size is just more fun! If you don't have a mini tin, you can make these in a regular size muffin tin as well.

We recently had Friday night pizza at our house and made some of the most delicious homemade pizzas!

But, we had a lot of toppings leftover and I thought a pizza muffin sounded so delicious. Sometimes a savory muffin, rather than a sweet muffin, hits the spot!

Italian Pizza Bites Ingredients

You'll need a few basic ingredients for these bites. If you want to play around with different "flavors" of pizza you can too!

Try adding in different meat such as bacon or crumbled sausage, diced chicken and broccoli and dip in Alfredo sauce, or toss in veggies for a veggie lovers style pizza!

Follow these simple steps below to make them!

Everything gets mixed in one bowl...#lessdishes

How to make Italian Pizza Bites

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, dried basil and dried oregano.

Beat the egg and pour into the dry ingredients along with the milk. Stir. Then add in the chopped pepperoni, salami and mozzarella. Let this sit for ~10 minutes.

Spray a mini muffin tin or regular sized muffin tin with non-stick spray and spoon mixture into the cups. Bake for ~20 minutes, or until browned. I'd recommend to start checking in at 15 minutes. (Will make 24 mini or 12 regular size larger bites).

Serve warm with warm marinara sauce or pizza sauce.

Tips for making pizza bites:

Let the batter rest for 10 minutes instead of pouring right into the tins. This methods makes the end product less tough and more tender (due to the gluten essentially "relaxing").

Cut up the salami and pepperoni into small pieces!

Add in other fun meats or add in veggies: ground sausage, diced chicken, bell peppers, Alfredo dipping sauce, etc.

Serve them right away! If making for meal prep, store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
