🦌 1/2 cup honey
🦌 1 tsp vanilla extract or powder

Instructions:
1. In a saucepan, over low heat, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter, honey and vanilla.

3. Press the mixture into a silicone mold or use cupcake liners. Press down firmly to pack it all in.
4. Pop into the freezer for 2 hours to firm up.
5. Break the pretzels into half and use a dab of peanut butter to set them in place as antlers.
