1

Warm milk into medium bowl. Sprinkle yeast and wait 2 minutes. Then add Brown sugar and 1 Cup Flour and stir with wooden spoon.
2

Dice soften (2 Tbls) Butter then add to mixture. Add gradually, rest of flour and Salt. Dough will be sticky. Knead more flour in just to make dough manageable. Make a ball, cover good with plastic wrap and let rise in a slightly warm place for 1 hour.
3

Preheat oven to 450°F. Butter or grease baking sheet. After risen, Punch down dough and form 6 balls. Roll each into a rope and form your pretzels. Cover dough to keep from getting dry.
4

Large pot, dissolve baking soda in 4 cups water. Bring water to good heat, not boiling. Dip each pretzel dough in water for 1 minute. This is the most complicated part and takes practice. Arrange each on buttered baking sheet. Bake 10 - 12 minutes.
