These Witches Brooms are the perfect Halloween recipe! With only 3 ingredients they’re done in minutes – plus they’re super cute and the kids can even make them themselves!
Halloween Witch Candy
What is more halloween than witches’ broomsticks? These candy treats are super easy to make and they are perfect for a party. We love all things witch at Halloween (like Cauldron Cupcakes or Witch Hat Cookies) and these go perfectly alongside. Plus kids (and adults) absolutely love these treats – and it’s a fun party activity too!
Ingredients Needed
- Pretzel Sticks: For the broom handles
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups: For the broom heads
- Glitter Gel: To make sure the two ingredients stick together. You can use any color or use frosting.
How to make Witches Brooms
- Place peanut butter cups unwrapped upside down on a plate.
- Squeeze a bit of icing or gel icing on the top in the center.
- Insert a pretzel stick in the top.
Expert Tips
- Make these for a party! If you need anything last minute – these brooms are super easy to get done.
- If you peel the peanut butter cups and find that the chocolate is coming off, put them in the freezer for a few minutes.
- Store in an airtight container for up to one week. I do not recommend freezing these.
Witches’ Brooms Recipe
Ingredients
- 24 Miniature Peanut Butter Cups (unwrapped)
- 24 Pretzel sticks
- Frosting or gel icing (see note)
Instructions
- Place peanut butter cups unwrapped upside down on a plate.
- Squeeze a bit of icing or gel icing on the top in the center.
- Insert a pretzel stick in the top.
- Store in an airtight container for up to one week. I do not recommend freezing these.
Recipe Notes
- If your peanut butter cups are pulling off the chocolate edges when you’re unwrapping them (meaning they’re too warm), freeze for a few minutes.
- I used a little tube of red gel icing from the grocery store, but you can use frosting in a piping bag if you prefer.
