1/2 cup butter or margarine — softened
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons shortening
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup butterscotch-flavored chips
Preparation:
Heat oven to 350º. Beat brown sugar, butter, water and vanilla in

Stir in flour and salt. Shape dough into twenty 1 1/4-inch balls.
Place pretzel rod halves on ungreased cookie sheet. Press ball of dough
onto cut end of each pretzel rod. Press dough with fork to resemble

Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
Cover cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place brooms on waxed paper. Melt
shortening and chocolate chips in 1-quart saucepan over low heat,
stirring occasionally, until smooth; remove from heat. Spoon melted
chocolate over brooms, leaving about 1 inch at top of pretzel handle
and bottom halves of cookie bristles uncovered.
Place butterscotch chips in microwavable bowl. Microwave uncovered on
Medium-High (70%) 30 to 50 seconds, stirring after 30 seconds, until
chips can be stirred smooth. Drizzle over chocolate. Let stand until
chocolate is firm.
