Cream Cheese Filled Pretzels


Ever since my Disneyland annual pass expired last year, I have been having some serious Disneyland withdrawals. Some of my symptoms include: constantly checking Southwest to see when air plane tickets to John Wayne airport go on sale, thinking of a game plan for pin trading with castmembers, daydreaming of finding all the hidden mickeys, and having intense cravings for turkey legs, dole whips, and cream cheese filled pretzels. To help ease my symptoms a little, I thought I could try to make some cream cheese filled pretzels. This recipe is so good, it makes me feel like I am back on Main Street, USA.

Mickey Mouse Nutella Cookies

I love Costco. It has everything I need at good prices and more. My only gripe is that if I'm shopping for myself (one person), the bulk sizes at Costco can get kind of overwhelming. I usually only buy something there if I know that I can eat it everyday for the next month and not get sick of it. But this last time I went to Costco, I could not help myself from picking up the pack of two nutella jars and placing it in my cart. Maybe it was my logical reasoning that the jumbo package of two costs the same as one small stingy jar at other stores or perhaps it was my sweet tooth controlling my body, but whatever the cause, I ended up leaving the warehouse with two bucketfuls of chocolatey paste.
