Description

Cheesy Witches Pretzel Broomsticks are a fun and festive snack perfect for Halloween parties or themed gatherings. These easy-to-make treats combine gooey mozzarella cheese with crunchy pretzel sticks, tied together with fresh chives to resemble miniature broomsticks. They are both visually appealing and delicious, making them an ideal appetizer or party finger food.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 mozzarella cheese sticks, cut in half
  • 8 pretzel sticks
  • Fresh chives, for tying

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cheese Sticks: After cutting the mozzarella cheese sticks in half, make small slices about halfway down each piece, being careful not to cut too far up as the top needs to stay intact to hold the pretzel stick.
  2. Create Broom Effect: Gently pull the sliced parts of the cheese apart to create a fringed broom-like appearance at the bottom of the cheese stick halves.
  3. Make Hole for Pretzel Stick: Using a large toothpick or similar tool, carefully create a hole at the top of the cheese piece where the pretzel stick will be inserted.
  4. Assemble Broomsticks: Press one pretzel stick into the hole at the top of each cheese broomstick piece, ensuring it is secure.
  5. Wrap with Chive: Take a fresh chive and wrap it around the cheese where it meets the pretzel stick, then tie it into a knot to hold the broomstick shape together.
  6. Serve: Arrange the completed cheesy broomsticks on a serving platter and serve immediately as a fun finger food.

Notes

  • Use fresh mozzarella for best texture and ease of slicing.
  • If fresh chives are unavailable, thin green onions or edible herb strings may be substituted.
  • These broomsticks are best consumed fresh to enjoy the crispness of the pretzels and the meltiness of the cheese.
  • For added flavor, sprinkle a little garlic powder or Italian seasoning on the cheese before assembling.
  • Use large toothpicks or a skewer to make the hole to avoid breaking the cheese.
