Rudolph Celery Snacks
Fun holiday snacks for kids don’t have to be boring! Surprise your little ones with these Rudolph celery snacks. They are easy, simple and quick to make.
Ingredients
- 4 celery ribs (each cut into 3-inch sticks, see note 1)
- peanut butter (see note 2)
- twist pretzels
- 24 tiny edible candy eyes
- 12 cranberries (see note 3)
Instructions
- Cut off the back of each celery stick. Check the photos for reference. This will help the sticks stay in place.
- Fill each celery stick with peanut butter. Apply a little bit more peanut butter, where the pretzel sticks will go.
- Then, break the pretzels and stick them into the peanut butter.
- Add eyes and a nose and repeat until you have used all celery sticks.
- Serve right away or shortly after you make them.
Notes
- Pat dry the celery with a paper kitchen towel before spreading the peanut butter over. 3 inches = 7.5 centimeters.
- Peanut butter can be substituted with hazelnut cocoa spread of your choice. Hummus is also a great alternative, if your kids like it.
- For the nose use anything you like: fresh, frozen, dried cranberries, chocolate candies, fresh raspberries or any red-colored button-shaped candy.
- I recommend serving these right (or shortly) after you make them to avoid the pretzels going soft. Depending on what you use for the nose, this can also start melting after a while.
- This recipe can be easily halved/doubled or tripled ...
