Instructions
Lay Out the Wings
Place pretzel sticks vertically on a clean parchment lined surface. On each side of the stick position two pretzel twists touching the stick to form the four wings of the butterfly.
Apply Peanut Butter Glue
Dab a small amount of peanut butter on the inner edge of each pretzel twist where it meets the pretzel stick body. Press gently to help the pieces adhere together.
Decorate the Wings
Press colorful candy pieces gently onto the flat surface of each pretzel twist wing. Create symmetrical patterns on both sides so the butterfly wings match each other.
Add Antennae and Set
Press two mini chocolate chips at the top of the pretzel stick as eyes. Let the assembled butterflies rest for 5 minutes so the peanut butter sets slightly before serving.
