1 cup fresh spinach, chopped (I love using baby spinach for a milder flavor)
1 cup artichoke hearts, chopped (canned or frozen works perfectly!)
1 cup cream cheese, softened (let it sit out for a bit to get nice and creamy)
1/2 cup sour cream (this adds a lovely tanginess)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for that gooey, melty goodness)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (because, let’s be honest, cheese makes everything better)

How to Prepare Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Pretzel Bites

Now, let’s get to the fun part—making these Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Pretzel Bites! Follow my steps, and you’ll have a batch of these delicious bites ready in no time.

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

First things first, you’ll want to preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Preheating is super important because it helps achieve that lovely golden brown crust we all adore!

Step 2: Prepare the Cheese Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, softened cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Mix everything together until it’s smooth and creamy. You can use a hand mixer if you want to save some elbow grease! Just make sure there are no lumps—smooth is the goal here!

Step 3: Shape the Pretzel Bites

Next, roll out the refrigerated pretzel dough on a lightly floured surface and cut it into small squares—about 3 inches wide should do it. Place a generous spoonful of your cheesy filling right in the center of each square. Then, fold the dough over the filling, pinching the edges to seal them tightly. You want to make sure that cheesy goodness doesn’t escape during baking!

Step 4: Boil the Pretzel Bites

Now, here’s where the magic happens. Bring a pot of water to a boil and stir in a couple of tablespoons of baking soda—this gives your pretzel bites that classic texture! Carefully dip each filled pretzel bite into the boiling water for about 30 seconds. This step is crucial for achieving that signature pretzel flavor and chewiness!

Step 5: Bake the Pretzel Bites

Finally, place your pretzel bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush them with the beaten egg for that beautiful golden color, and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake for 12-15 minutes until they’re golden brown and puffy. You’ll know they’re done when they look irresistible and smell absolutely heavenly!

Tips for Success

To ensure your Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Pretzel Bites turn out perfectly, here are a few tips I swear by! First, make sure your cream cheese is really softened; it makes mixing so much easier and gives you that smooth filling. Don’t skip the boiling step—it’s essential for that chewy pretzel texture! If you find the dough too sticky, dust your surface with a bit of flour to make rolling easier. And remember, pinching the edges tightly is key to keeping the filling inside while baking. Oops! Also, keep an eye on them in the oven; every oven is a little different, so you want to pull them out when they’re golden brown and delicious!
