Ingredients

  • 20 salted pretzel sticks
  • 5 slices soft gouda or mozzarella cheese (or another type of soft cheese)
  • chives (to secure)

Instructions

  • Lay a slice of cheese flat and cut it into 4 strips—think of them as little cheesy ribbons.
  • Take a pretzel stick and roll a cheese strip around one end like a mini wizard’s wand.
  • Secure by tying gently with a chive. Trim any excess chive with scissors.
  • Repeat until you have a whole army of cheesy pretzel wands.
