So fun and easy! My store was out of breadsticks that weren't pre-baked, so I used some pre-made whole wheat pizza dough. I think it actually worked better for giving a broomstick shape because I had more control over the size and thickness. Although our friends all thought they were chicken feet!

Pretty much made these as given, & did include the garlic powder! However, after the brooms were made, I did cut the handle so that it was a bit slimmer! Still, however it's done, the idea is great, & they taste just as good, too! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

What a fun and yummy breadstick to make for your kids on Halloween!! My kids are both grown so I made these to go along with a wonderful salad for our lunch today. DH felt they looked more like a bird's foot than a broomstick, lol. I did use the optional garlic salt along with the parmesan cheese, yummy!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for PRMR Tag Game.
