Wash the celery sticks under cool running water and cut each stalk into uniform lengths of approximately 3 to 4 inches.

In a medium bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with the chopped olives and chives until creamy and smooth.

Fill each celery stick with the cream cheese mixture using a spoon or piping bag, then place them on a serving platter.

Refrigerate the filled celery sticks for at least 30 minutes or serve immediately if preferred.

Remove from the refrigerator, garnish with additional chopped chives, and serve as a delightful appetizer.
