Warm Chocolate Chip Cookie-Stuffed Soft Pretzels 

Mix warm water, sugar, yeast, and melted butter. Let sit for 5 minutes.

Add salt and flour to the yeast mixture, knead until smooth. Let dough rise for 1 hour.

While dough rises, prepare cookie dough by mixing butter, sugars, vanilla, eggs, flour, baking soda, and chocolate chips.

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Divide pretzel dough into 8 pieces, roll each into a rectangle. Spread cookie dough down the center, roll into logs, and form pretzels.

Dunk each pretzel in water with baking soda, place on a baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with sea salt.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, serve warm with cold milk.
