I've made these several times now and each time I've been asked for the recipe. You can't eat just one handful as you find yourself going back for more! Depending on the crowd, I have added more cayenne but other than that the recipe comes out perfect every time. I have never found these to come out greasy and people are actually surprized when I give them the recipe and they discover that oil is in the recipe.

This was super easy! I made it for some of my co-workers, and everyone asked me for the recipe afterwords. Delicious. I like spicy things, so I didn't think they were TOO spicy. I thought they were just right. You can really taste the spice after swallowing. Gets ya in the back of the throat. I also used Olive Oil, instead of vegetable oil, because that's what I had. Yum yum yum

A Huge Family Favorite. I've been making these for years, but slight differences - I use 2 bags of pretzels, 1 cup of oil, then 1 tablespoon of each of the seasonings, Garlic Powder, Lemon Pepper and Dill weed instead of Cayenne, plus the pkg of dry Ranch mix - or really adjust per your taste. But this what everyone always begs me to make.

Love these and so oes my family. I baked one batch, the other I just left in the baggie, shaking occasionally and left for 12 hours. The oil absorbed in the one I didn't bake. Both were great. I'm making them for a potluck this week. I love the heat that comes from them.

Made these for the superbowl. Super easy, but would cut down on the lemon pepper. I also used garlic powder rather than garlic salt and increased it to 2 tsp. I used olive oil rather than veg oil

This is a great recipe not only for the pretzels but there are so many varieties you can also use. Use Chex cereal or oyster crackers instead of the pretzels. I sometimes use 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes instead of the cayenne and lemon pepper. You can also use dill and no lemon pepper. I never use the garlic salt...instead I use garlic powder because sometimes the packaged ranch mix is a little salty. Try adding peanuts..dry roasted or cocktail peanuts....cashew pieces are good also..... Wonderful recipe..so many ways you can use this recipe ..... be creative! We enjoy adding the nuts to ours...Thanks for sharing!

This is a great snack. I used the football shaped pretzels for a Super Bowl Party.

To make it less salty, I use garlic powder instead of garlic salt. The pretzels are plenty salty, and the ranch dressing mix also has salt. Folks love these!!
