1
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Get a large baking sheet ready.
2
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat, then remove the pan from the heat.
3
Combine the chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and cheddar cheese powder. Add this mixture to the melted butter, stirring well to combine.
4
Add the mini pretzel twists to the pan, stirring them with a wooden spoon or spatula until they are thoroughly coated in the buttery spice mixture.
5
Transfer the pretzels onto the baking sheet and spread them out evenly. Bake the pretzels for 30 minutes, stirring them around every 10 minutes to ensure even baking and flavor distribution.

While the pretzels are baking, prepare the cheese dip. Warm the cream cheese in a small saucepan over medium heat until it starts to soften, then stir in the cheddar cheese powder and milk. Continue to heat and stir until the dip is smooth and creamy.
7
Once baked, remove the pretzels from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.

Transfer the pretzels to a serving bowl. Serve alongside the warm cheese dip, and enjoy!
