Cut each dinner roll in half and roll out to about 5 inches (they must be thawed first). Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.

Melt the butter in a large pan and whisk in the flour completely incorporating it in the butter.

While whisking, add the milk and cheese. Continue cooking until the cheese has melted. Salt and pepper to taste.

Place the pretzel cheese fries back in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the cheese has fully melted.
