Directions

1Mix together active sourdough starter, warm water, and brown sugar.
2Add flour, salt, and butter, then mix until you get a consistent dough.
3Cover the dough and let it rest for 5 hours or until it basically doubles in size.
4Once doubled, plop your dough onto a floured surface and divide it into three equal pieces.
5Roll out each piece into a rope about 1 inch thick.
6Cut each rope into eight 1-inch bite-sized pieces.
7Bring a pot of water to a boil with a tablespoon of baking soda.
8Drop the dough pieces in batches of 12 and let them boil for 30 seconds.
9Remove the boiled dough pieces and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
10Sprinkle each bite with a generous amount of flaky salt.
11Put them in the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for around 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
12While the pretzel bites are baking, make the cheese dip by melting butter and adding flour.
13Add milk to the butter and flour mixture.
14Add shredded cheese to the mixture and melt it until a smooth dip forms.
15Serve the golden-brown pretzel bites with the cheese dip.
