Fun Halloween Treats

Anyone want to know how to make these cute "ghosts on broomsticks"? I'm going to make them and thought I'd share how. :)
You'll need:
1 Fruit by the Foot fruit snack (any flavor)
14 pretzel sticks (2-3 inches long)
2/3 c. white vanilla chips, melted
1 1/2 tsp. mini semisweet chocolate chips (52 chips)

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