Homemade Disney World Mickey Mouse pretzels. This copycat recipe is just like the salty dough snack you have at your favorite theme park.

Mickey Mouse Pretzels

Since we left Florida in 2015, I realize how much I took advantage of Disney World. It was a set of theme parks I went to almost every summer when growing up. I never had huge earning to go, but when we did go it was a huge treat. I never understood how family or friends (from other states) found it such a big family vacation to go. After all, we could just hop in the car and be at the Disney gates in a mater of hours. Now that I live in DC, I realize I took this park for granted. I am a mom of five and I dream of the day I can take my entire family to the Magic Kingdom. I want them to experience Space Mountain, to get wet white going down a surprise drop in splash mountain, and to experience all the treats I had while growing up – like Mickey Mouse Pretzels.

Are you a fan of Mickey Mouse Pretzels? These beloved theme park snacks were found originally at California’s Disneyland but have not made it to parks in Florida including the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, and Disney’s water parks including Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. If you don’t have one of these theme parks in your backyard, we are happy to share our easy, three-ingredient, Mickey Mouse Pretzels. These are perfect if you are hosting a Disney party, make sure to pair with this dessert Chocolate Covered Mickey OREOs.

This recipe makes four Mickey Pretzels.
