Notes
- I used store-bought pretzel bites but if you have a few extra minutes, these homemade pretzel bites are always a big hit!
- To make your pretzel bites look like mini footballs, start by placing one piece of shredded mozzarella in the center of each one. Then add two smaller pieces over the top to resemble the stitches on a football. Finally, bake for 5 minutes at 350 degrees in the oven and let cool.
