Sometimes, a plain soft pretzel is all you need. Especially when they are fresh from the oven.
Sometimes, a plain soft pretzel dipped into the last of a bowl of soup is perfection.
And sometimes, you just need something delicious to dip your pretzel into. Something like this garlic cheddar dip.

What’s kind of dip do you like for your pretzels? Or your favorite dip for anything, for that matter!

perhaps i should dip apples into this goodness?
I bet it would taste a lot like dipping apples in cheese fondue! YUM!
That looks perfect Julie!! Now I’m just waiting for that cream cheese icing……
I could eat a whole load of that dip…especially with soft pretzels. You could outdo any of those shops in the mall.
My mouth is watering! lol I really need to make some pretzels this weekend!!!! :0)
ahhh, looks so good!!! now i want to make soft pretzels AND this cheese dip!
Hey Julie. This dip looks so good, I can taste it already. Maybe it wasn’t smart of me to find your blog when I was hungry.
I’ll put your cheddar soft pretzel dip on my “have to make this week” list.
Welcome, and I hope you enjoy!
Possibly a stupid question but is this recipe still good at room temp/cold? Or does the cheese reharden? Im looking for pretzel dip ideas for a picnic so heat is out of the question.
Room temperature or a little warmer is fine, but I think it would get too hard if it was cold!
