Prepare Cinnamon Sugar
Mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Once the pretzels are out of the oven, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add in powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream, beating until smooth and fluffy.
Decorate the Pretzel
Once the pretzels are cooled slightly, drizzle the German buttercream icing over the top.
