I love that my oldest daughter likes to help out and make things in the kitchen. The last two years she has made these cute little broomsticks on Halloween. I remember the first year I gave her a few tips on how to make them and she took it from there! These are perfect to have out for any little get together or party you might be having this month! Get your kids to help you and have fun!
Start with the desired amount of string cheese, I usually use 12. Remember each cheese stick will equal 2 brooms. Then gather your pretzel sticks and chives.
Unwrap each string cheese and then cut each of them in half.
Carefully take your kitchen scissors to cut your fringe on the broom. Only cut about 2/3 – 3/4 of the way up.
Tie a knot around each broom with a chive.
With a small sharp knife cut a little hole out on the top of your broom.
Then add in your pretzel stick.
And that’s it! A super simple fun appetizer the kids will all love to eat, and help make!
I would love if you would join my Friday link-up party!
Here is your printable recipe!

these look awesome. lots of times cute little appetizers like these tend to take sooo long to make and are sooo not worth it but these look like you can have a couple dozen within 30 min or less because there’s no cooking or mixing involved. Great idea and I will have to make these in the very near future.#happynowlinkup
