Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Pretzel sticks
- 4 sticks String cheese
- 12 pieces Fresh chives
Instructions
Unwrap the string cheese sticks and cut each one into thirds, creating 12 smaller pieces of cheese.
Take one piece of cheese and use a small knife to gently make vertical cuts around one end, about halfway up the length of the cheese. This will create the 'bristles' of the broomstick.
Insert a pretzel stick into the uncut end of the cheese, pushing it in gently to secure the broomstick shape.
Wrap a piece of fresh chive around the top of the cheese bristles, just below where the pretzel stick meets the cheese. Tie the chive snugly and trim any excess with kitchen scissors.
Repeat the process with the remaining pretzel sticks, cheese, and chives until all broomsticks are assembled.
Arrange the Witches Broomsticks on a serving platter and enjoy immediately, or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
