String Cheese Reindeer

By Jennifer Hill November 22, 2017
Cute, easy winter snack!

What you need:
String Cheese
Small Pretzels
Slice of Ham (or two)
Cream Cheese (tiny bit to "glue" eyes and nose on)
Raisins
Baby Carrot

What you do:
1. Prep the ingredients. Unwrap the string cheese. Break each pretzel in half to resemble antlers. Slice ham into strips to look like a scarf. Cut raisins in half. Cut the carrot into small wedges.

2. Assemble each reindeer. Poke half of a pretzel onto each side of the top for antlers. Wrap a strip of ham as a scarf around the upper middle of the cheese. Use cream cheese to "glue" on the raisin eyes and carrot nose. Cover in plastic wrap to keep fresh until you serve.

Enjoy the delight when the children see them!
