# Steps to Follow:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

03 - Add pretzel chips to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure even coating with the spice mixture.
04 - Spread coated pretzel chips evenly in a single layer across the prepared baking sheet.
05 - Transfer to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until chips are crisp and aromatic.
06 - Remove from oven; immediately sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, if desired, while chips are warm.
07 - Allow pretzel chips to cool completely before serving or transferring to an airtight container for storage.
