![]() The put the hot dog on there and wrapped the cheese and onion around the hot dog. I placed the green onion on my work surface and placed the cheese strings on top. The cheese ones are fun to eat, but a bit of a pain to make. Just use the green onion pieces as is t fasten the cheese bits to the hot dog pieces. It made them slimy and not easy to work with. It probably would have been easier if I hadn’t blanched the green onions pieces. I wanted to pay some homage to the original cheese brooms, so I tried to add some shredded cheese pieces to these hot dog brooms. I grabbed my kitchen scissors and cut 2/3 the way down the bottom of the hot dog and right in half. Cut into thirds it is! Which means you really have to be careful with how you cut the broom pieces. ![]() They needed to be a little smaller than that. Which would be fine for a lunch, but these are snacks or appetizers. The first batch I tried I cut the hot dogs in half. I thought, “If I slice little pieces will it still spread out like that?” Or even just the octopus hot dogs with the “legs” all sliced off the hot dog that curls up in the water when you cook them. Bell pepper brooms would go well with the cheese brooms, too.īut I kept remember the hot dog octopus with the spaghetti in it. They would make for a cute and delicious appetizer for a Halloween party. You could use some of the roasted peppers or peppadew peppers for those. The seed has been planted for that idea and I think I could easily pull it off. And I still might do that, but not this year. Then I thought about shredding some pepperoni or salami and fasten that to the pretzel sticks. And, if I could find that on my regular grocery run, I might have made those. One of them included that shredded phyllo dough. I started researching some ideas a few weeks ago. I wanted mine to stand out and be different. And I definitely didn’t want to do the mini Reece’s thing. I didn’t want to do the standard cheese string thing. Yeah, I know this isn’t what you were thinking with Witches Brooms. Witches Brooms are a fun and quick snack, appetizer, or lunch for the kids.
