  • Servings 14

Ingredients

  • 1 roll (0.75 oz) Betty Crocker™ Fruit by the Foot™ chewy fruit snack in 3-foot roll (any flavor), unwrapped
  • 14 pretzel sticks (2 to 3 inches long)
  • 2/3 cup white vanilla chips, melted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons miniature semisweet chocolate chips (52 chips)

Steps

  • 1
    Line large cookie sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper. Unroll fruit snack roll. With kitchen scissors, cut 3/4-inch-long fringe on one long side of snack roll. Cut fringed roll into 2-inch pieces.
  • 2
    To make each "broomstick," wrap piece of fringe around one end of pretzel; press to seal. Place "broomsticks" on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
  • 3
    Drop rounded 1/2 teaspoonfuls of melted white vanilla chips crosswise onto pretzels; shape to resemble "ghosts" seated on "broomsticks."
  • 4
    Press 3 miniature chocolate chips into each "ghost" for eyes and mouth. Let stand at room temperature for about 45 minutes or in freezer for about 5 minutes or until set. Peel candies from waxed paper.

  • Get a jump on Halloween fun by making these ghosts the day before your party.
  • Make these treats extra easy by microwaving the chips in a food-storage freezer bag on Medium (50%) for 2 to 3 minutes, kneading every minute, until smooth. Snip a corner of the bag, then squeeze and swirl away!
